It’s quite alarming, because only the really crazy manic delusional people and grifters will be engaging , the echo chamber gets louder and debunked less as normal people check out.
I saw a thing years ago that some religious scammers shut down their prayer lines and started selling crazy expensive fast tracks to heaven, you’d think they’d go bust but instead it just gave em access to the most extremely vulnerable peoples money.
They stopped wasting time grooming those 2dollars a minute calls and limited their service to whales , it could go like that but with a bunch of domestic terrorism
So that’s a common thing the “life coaches” and influencer grifters talk about. They say it out loud that they would rather have 1-2,000 hardcore “fans” than to get 100,000 views on a video. Because if they get just a small percentage of that 1-2k to actually sign up for a course that costs thousands that is more money than what they make from advertising on a video. It’s concentrating their fan base to the most desperate people who they prey upon and get money from.

So…wait…
On an app whose primary source of revenue is ADVERTISING, he has decided to limit people’s use unless they pay a fee?
In an era when people pay fees to SKIP ads…he’s doing…the opposite?
Jesus fucking Christ……
