It’s official. Meta Workplace is entering its final chapter. Today, we’re watching a platform that once redefined workplace communication take its last full breath before shifting into read-only mode. You can still log in, scroll through old updates, and download your data, but the days of posting, chatting, and reacting in real time are gone. And by June 1, 2026, everything—your posts, your files, your memories—will be wiped clean.

For a lot of organizations, this isn’t just a change of tools. It’s the end of an era. Workplace, which started out as “Facebook at Work” back in 2016, became the go-to hub for teams everywhere. From small nonprofits sharing quick wins to global enterprises connecting thousands of employees, it created spaces where work conversations felt, well… human.

But times change. Meta wants to focus on AI and the metaverse, and Workplace just isn’t part of that vision. And while there’s no denying the sadness of saying goodbye, there’s also something exciting about what comes next.

The Shift: What This Means for You

As of today, the platform still feels familiar—you can click around, revisit old group threads, and even reminisce over that GIF war your team started back in 2021. But starting tomorrow, everything freezes. No new posts. No new reactions. Just static pages of your digital history waiting to be downloaded.

That download window runs until May 31, 2026. After that? It’s gone. Permanently.

If you’re reading this and feeling a slight panic in your chest, you’re not alone. Organizations across industries—from retail to healthcare, education to logistics—are asking the same question: “Where do we go now?”

Your Next Digital Home

The good news? You don’t have to start from scratch. At Pebb, we’ve been preparing for this moment for months. When Meta announced the shutdown back in May 2024, we started building tools to make the transition effortless.

Think of Pebb as Workplace, but better. You still get the familiar news feed that keeps your teams in the loop, but with modern upgrades that actually make sense for 2025. Imagine scrolling through updates that are easy to filter, sharing files in real time, and chatting with your team—whether they’re in the office, on the road, or on the floor of a busy shop.

And here’s the kicker: migrating is stupidly simple. Our one-click migration tool takes care of your posts, your groups, your profiles—everything. In less than an hour, you’ll see your community come to life again, only this time on a platform that’s faster, cleaner, and, honestly, just more fun to use.

Why Teams Are Choosing Pebb

Since the announcement, we’ve helped hundreds of organizations move to Pebb. From frontline-heavy teams with thousands of employees to small nonprofits running on passion and tight budgets, they all say the same thing: the transition was seamless, and the experience feels fresh but familiar.

Our platform is built for the modern workforce. Whether your people are behind desks, in the field, or out serving customers, Pebb keeps everyone connected with features like:

• Live profiles so you can find anyone, anytime.

• Real-time chats that actually save your history.

• Private clubs for team projects and communities.

• A knowledge library to keep all your important posts and key files in one place.

And unlike many other platforms, Pebb is free at any scale. If you have 100 users or 60,000, there’s no cost barrier keeping your team from staying connected.

Don’t Wait Until the Lights Go Out

The clock is ticking. August 31, 2025 was the last day for real-time collaboration, and now we’re in what I like to call “digital limbo.” You can wait, sure—but why risk losing momentum when the transition is so easy?

Visit Pebb, schedule your migration, and let our team handle the heavy lifting. By this time next week, you could be scrolling through a familiar feed, liking posts, and chatting with your team like nothing ever changed—except now, your platform is future-proof.

Looking Ahead

With Pebb, that future is here. It’s mobile-first, built for every industry, and ready to grow with you—whether you’re managing five people or five thousand.

Because while Meta is closing a door, there’s a whole new world of opportunity waiting—one where your workplace feels more connected than ever.
