> "Get direct access to customer support"

They have customer support??? :D

But seriously. What's the value add here? Perhaps it's for influencers who post a lot? For me as a user who only follows there's no point then. I don't use FB anymore anyway, only insta.

I'd pay for social media IF AND ONLY IF they do the following:

- Not datamine me for tracking

- Don't show ads

- Don't use algorithms to control my feed - just let me follow who I want and show everything they post and add zero 'suggested' content

However this is not going to happen of course. They're still going to monetize. So there's no point.



After seeing The Social Dilemma, I agree that algorithms optimized for making money are evil and have to go.
