By now, everyone should know: Facebook is renaming itself next week. Not that it really solves anything, or changes anything.
In an effort to focus on the new direction Facebook wants to head towards, the so-called metaverse, the social media giant is renaming itself. We still have no idea what it’s going to be called by next week, but here are a few Facebook new name ideas that they left on the cutting room floor. Wonder why?
