The reason the posts are ads is that they don't pay their creators, which are the reason why anyone spends time on their platform consuming the ads and making them money. So the only way a creator can continuously make high quality content is to become professional, but the only way to do that when there's no money is to make money by making posts that are ads. So Instagram feeds are ads sandwiched between ads disguised as posts.

If you don't disable all notifications you are using it wrong, keep only the messenger. But yes, when you're busy and have a fulfilling life you don't feel the need to scroll endlessly.

My father told me that when cable first came out, the concept was to pay for no ads. Then a few years in, ads came about anyway. Same thing happened with XM radio (albeit only with ads for other XM channels/servíces). This is just a repeat of the same time-tested disingenuous business model: Start off free with ad revenue to generate an audience. Adopt a paid ad-free model. Bait-and-switch.

Hot take: People's data is becoming easily available all over the internet. Supply of people's data is ever increasing at a rate much faster than demand. Therefore, price of people's data is dropping. Social media companies like Meta and Twitter are not only doing this to keep revenues now, but also to survive in the future where data of a person's cells may be the only thing not avaialable to the public.

exactly, cuz KZfaq adds take time and you can’t just skip it where as insta adds are just a tap skip. KZfaq premium user since 3 years and it was totally worth it

I don’t understand what’s the difference between being verified on web vs ios. It’s still the same account. I don’t get it.

it's not the place of verification, it's the place of purchase for verification. if you get the subscription through the app store, the app store takes a cut, so meta made the price on the app store higher so they'll still make the same money. if you get the subscription through the web, you're just going to the instagram site, so there's no cut being taken for someone else, and that's why it's lower

uninstalled whatsapp back in november and life's never been better... anything *actually* important goes on in my friend/family circles, i'll hear about it either way, so what's the point? even with notifications turned off whatsapp did a lot more bad than good for my wellbeing and time management, happy to be rid of it :p

Signal is a pretty dope alternative. One of the founders of WhatsApp was even involved in making it. Kind of hard to switch friends from texting or WhatsApp though when people are already ingrained in doing things the way they’ve been doing them.

When is keeping the chart at a peak level good? If you firing on eight cylinders going 70mph down the highway, why do companies need to go 75 next year, 80 the next year, and so on. I mean when the cruise control is on and your maintaining it, why do you need more? Plus, you go 100 billion in your account....you win.

I’ve used you KZfaq premium and at least it removes completely pubs (outside from sponsors, but those can be managed with). I don’t get meta creating a subscription and not removing pubs. I suppose the value they get from you seeing pubs is so high they expect no one would pay to get rid of them. Something like $90/month.
