This is one of the biggest jibes I have ever read, given that Meta's MAU is the highest of all time (2.9b, if I remember correctly)

Instagram it's not over, and I bet will win the battle against TikTok

MAU doesn't mean much if they are losing users in primary markets and new users are from places where the ads don't pay.
Jibe?
Jibe

(verb): change course by swinging a fore-and-aft sail across a following wind.

(noun): an act or instance of jibing.

GP believes that the Atlantic article constitutes an instance of changing course by swinging a sail across a following wind, presumably metaphorically.

99% sure they meant "gibe", but thought I'd just ask to see if there was some new use of jibe that would make sense that I didn't know about.

gibe - (noun) an insulting or mocking remark; a taunt.

"a gibe at his old rivals"
