They can’t buy TikTok, and it’s too late to copy it.

Probably not but the TikTok has to pivot before they loose steam and start being a coglomorate otherwise they Will eventually fade so it depends on how successfully they execute this. Meantime Facebook just needs to catch the next TikTok to be relevant again.

Both companies have to keep evolving to stay relevant, yes.

One is declining and reviled, and the other is growing and seen as fun.

That’s the only difference.

But one sits on a mountain of cash and the other on just a hill

I guess you are not aware that TikTok is both highly profitable and valuable.

Don’t you mean Facebook isn’t TikTok’s size yet, since Facebook is declining both in revenue and users.
