In my social circles, people have moved from Facebook to Instagram and WhatsApp. To be honest, it's a different UI but the same algorithmic overlords.
The thing with Facebook/Meta is that it's not just one thing. It's a lot of different things under one umbrella. In general, the replacement for Meta is the Fediverse. But you need to be specific about which features you want to replace.
For long form posts, I've set up my own blog using Ghost. Ghost also has passable Fediverse support now, though it's still missing a lot of features.
