Facebook at Work (Meta Workplace)?

Has anyone ever seen a company in the wild that uses Facebook at Work (Meta Workplace)?
It's their social media site for internal company use, built on the Facebook code.

Normally I would think this is some click bait risk... but since it's @Pete-S I know it's not something way off in that direction.
Still - Can't get me to click that link... lol.. and no- I hadn't heard of it,... and am like - WHY,.. Why would you do that. That is ten times more poison them Sharepoint.
ETA: IMO.

I don't know. Don't companies use Sharepoint?
I guess I'm wondering in general if companies use internal social sites. Or perhaps they just use messaging apps like Teams and Slack or just...nothing.

I've seen it before, but not in use in a real company. Feels like a crazy platform to use for internal needs. No security and all that. What company is THAT lax on security?

So OTHER social sites, yes. We've used the ones from Microsoft (Yammer) and Zoho Connect and the idea is fine. I like them. I just wouldn't use one from Meta. But conceptually, I find them slightly useful but not very.

Not quite the same. Yammer is Microsoft's product in this category, not Sharepoint. Sharepoint is not a social site, it's a wiki.

what he said - I've never seen a company using Meta's workplace version.
