Despite being on the FB-naysayers' side, I think that scientific and engineering work that FB outputs is amazing and greatly adds to our (tech) community. I use several of their frameworks on a daily basis and look forward into dabbling with the new stuff.

PyTorch is the best thing which came out of FB (I love it). However, their company’s core products are IMHO a cancer on today’s society
However, despite that engineering work, FB's UI seems broken at times, at least on Android. The app crashes a lot, it often seems to be in a confused state, and it contains basic UI design errors (such as when using the Back button, you almost never end up at exactly the same screen and scroll-position as where you started from).
Absolutely! PyTorch and React are two of my favorite tools ever.
