From the outside it looks like a lot of money out of nothing, but really it just looks impressive, I like it, it's a great reference point for the future...

An interesting, though quite expected, statistic.
These are indeed large companies with great potential and a long history.

We did not expect such results. very interesting post

Expected results, I would say, the only thing that maybe surprise me is the fact that Wikipedia is before Instagram, didn't think about it, to be honest, and also that Facebook still has more visitors than Instagram, thought it's a pretty dead network, except some groups and paid ads that still somewhat work.

Comeone!! I don't know how you think this way about FB and Insta .. Dacebook has over 2.8B active users..
It depends on the geo .. in my country for exp it's VERY common to find people having FB acc and not Insta acc, Facebook is the most used social media platform here, I can even say > more than Youtube .. Insta isn't that popular .. And the countries that has alot of population use FB as a main SM platform (such as India) ..

Yes, I agree with you on that, it highly depends on the geo, but in general, in Tier 1 countries at least, Instagram is getting more and more popular, younger people don't even use their Facebook accounts anymore, but I didn't look it from a more general perspective as somewhere it's still very active.
