Sly way for the article to be titled. It's almost as if they're trying to mask Meta/Facebook being the owner of it.

Absolutely. They know that Facebook is uncool and unpopular. The Instagram branding still has some capital with the yutes.

Edit: I don't mean to say that The Verge is doing this intentionally (maybe, I don't know), but Meta certainly is.
