I don't believe for a second you'd pay $50 per month!

Yeah you'd do it to prove a point. 6 months later, no way in hell.

Virtue signaling is free. Paying up for my virtues? Never.

I think I would pay it. The peace of mind knowing that my every move isn't tracked and being used to sell me stuff or engagement bait me is invaluable tbh

I mean, I'm paying about that for Google to hold onto all my personal memories via Photos, and all that I could actually use self-hosting for.

Meanwhile, FB has all my network that I can't recreate or self-host so yes, I would pay that.

Meta "average revenue per person" around $50 per year. Absolutely reasonable to replace with a subscription.
