Instagram pulled in $16.5 billion from ads in six months.

of course. for every post there are 2 ads or more. its unusably bad and cant fathom how we normalized just doomscrolling through ads.
That’s the reason YouTube is pushing shorts so hard. They want people to continuously stream short bytes of content with short ads, which pay out way better than long form videos with longer ads
Lol I blocked shorts so fast when they appeared. If I wanted tiktok, I’d call China
It kills me that they shove them so hard, like I dont hate them but I want normal content. Youtube pushed 10 minute plus videos so hard they bloated decent channels so I cant get through as many as I want anymore but then shoved 1 minute clips down my throat
I can’t use Instagram. It’s literally all ads. I don’t see my friends posts because Instagram just serves garbage.
Revanced patch manager for Android lets you fix that
It’s wild that YouTube, owned by the only ad company that matters, isn’t insanely profitable. They don’t even need to degrade the service, Google could literally wipe corporations from the Internet if they didn’t play ball.
People don’t understand how much data costs. There is a reason YouTube was the only player for so long. And then the next player Twitch, who is also owned by multi billion-dollar corporation which subsidizes the operation, is also not profitable. There is Kick now, but they are baby without a plan, you are also operating in the negative.
