If it's ad and tracking free, and they guarantee its a human-only network, sure. No double-dipping if I'm no longer the product.

Businesses or maybe public figures that use these platforms for PR i kind of get it. Everything else they described just seemed depressing to me, taking advantage of the incredibly vain.

The only way I'd pay for FB or Insta would be if one of the perks as "no ads". If that's not a feature, then it's a non-starter for me. Are there other things that would be "nice to have"? Sure. But I'm not paying for any of them AND looking still looking at their ads.

Are there people here who don't use WhatsApp at all? Meta products are really pissing me off, but everyone I know is on WhatsApp.

It's uncommon in the US, iMessage and SMS/MMS/RCS are the primary text chat systems here that everyone uses from their phones.
