Could only read the first few lines lol. But hard to imagine many users paying for ad-free insta 🤔 But I suppose even small numbers at that size is significant revenue ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I would gladly pay for a service I use if it's really ad free and they would never collect or use my data. Here you pay to remove an artificial discomfort they implemented and they certainly still exploit everything they could to make more money with everything not visible by the user directly.

I hope it will just push more users to reconsider using these services and look for alternatives or just use their time in better way than social media.
