I'd argue this take falls into the "all social media is interchangeable" fallacy. Each of those platforms facebook acquired has a different usecase. I've got family in South America and friends in Europe, Whatsapp overlaps in uses with Facebook but it'd be wrong to call it a competitor in the sense of claiming them to be similar products. The same I'd argue extends to Instagram as well. The cross-platform interoperability is a feature for users of course but that's because the modern reality is that if you're not (nearly) every platform then you're probably not one of the people who's overly social digitally. Because on top of those three I also use Twitter, TikTok, and Discord.
