Meta (Facebook) doesn't own @meta instagram account

Facebook changed their name to Meta, and their instagram username is "wearemeta"

If they don't have the exact username for their company on a platform they own, you shouldn't stress if your Business usernames or domains have prefixes (getBusiness, useBusiness, joinBusiness) or suffixes (businessApp, businessHQ)

"meta" username account:
https://www.instagram.com/meta/
Meta's account:
https://www.instagram.com/wearemeta/

    Neither they owned @meta on Twitter. They first bought or claimed the username then changed @facebook to @meta and @meta to @facebook. So instantly @meta on Twitter got 13 million followers.

    Yeah, there's also a username called "reels", which is so funny.
    I'm sure Zucky wanted to use "therealmeta", but probably better heads prevailed...

    They don't have it yet ☺️

    Considering they usually can get any username for any company/celebrity, this is pretty interesting.
