Not at the same scale. It's been accelerating and continues to accelerate. From another announcement today:

Everyone wants to dance on Meta's grave, but it's way too soon. Yes, the Apple change gave them a top line haircut, but if the RL spend is excluded, they are making a ton of money. I'd also argue that the real headwinds are the general economy and TikTok.

Right, and not Apple's actions.
