The meta rebranding is not as evil as the hostile takeover of Twitter. So I am inclined to accept that name change but I do not know really what using meta means.

I don't use FB, if I did I would still say FB. I use WhatsApp and I don't call that meta. I guess the individual products just keep their names here.

There is also the difference that Facebook the service is still called Facebook. Only the company name changed, but not the product name. Where for Twitter, he renamed both the product and the company.
