It’d be nice if things on Meta or X just stopped sucking but giving them exactly what they want (views and clicks) isn’t the way to change their policies.

I’m currently working getting advertising going for my contracting business, and the number of people straight getting mad at me because I refuse to use Meta and Google is too damn high. I refuse to give Meta any business whatsoever, though I might do an SEO campaign with Google/bing.

Stay strong. If they feel that strongly about using platforms that support the oligarchy they either want one or are putting profits above people. That’s literally what all of this is about: screwing over people out of insatiable greed.

These people aren’t thinking that far ahead, they just view it as a way to increase their own revenue without a thought or care as to wider consequence. I can’t say I exactly blame them, we’re a small town that practically lives on Facebook and these people are running respectable small businesses to support their families, but I also refuse to play the Zuck game.
