React, pytorch, quest, etc.
Meta is not just Facebook.

Nah.. all roads lead to Rome. This is all fake technical diversity. You just need to look at Meta's revenue model, consider it's not a non-profit and then realize that pretty much any piece of work ends up one way or another to Facebook.

This hate of Facebook is massively overblown from both the right and left wing. The right hates the fact that the online population is younger and more inherently liberal and the left needed a convenient excuse for their electoral failures. I don't see them as a particularly evil corporation. Their engineering talent is exceptional and they have ambitious goals. Seems like a great place to work ( fyi I don't work there )

Probably. I'm not a political analyst to have valid opinions about which wing hates what corporation and why. Quite frankly I couldn't give a shit. I just have a fundamental issue with their core product and ambitious 'goals'

Reach and PyTorch are I believe developed within the Facebook arm. I assume by Quest you mean Oculus, so that's off to the side but... like, not really.
