Facebook is more famous than YouTube, based on active user numbers.
While "famous" is subjective, active users are a quantifiable metric for determining reach and overall popularity of a social media platform. Here's a breakdown:
- Facebook: As of late 2021 (as indicated in the reference data), Facebook boasted approximately 2.896 billion active users.
- YouTube: During the same period, YouTube had around 2.291 billion active users.
Therefore, considering these figures, Facebook has a larger active user base, suggesting greater overall reach and arguably, more fame.
Keep in mind that fame can also be considered in other ways, such as cultural impact or brand recognition. However, based on user engagement, Facebook is currently the more famous platform.
