Would you pay to use Facebook or Instagram?
I use both platforms daily!! I look at them wayyyyyy more than I probably should!
I do this not just because it’s addictive… but because it’s free!
However, after a recent iOS update, Facebook and Instagram could be hinting a pay-to-use feature in the future if things don’t go their way:

Basically with the new version of iOS it requires socials to ask permission to track some of your data to improve your ads.
So if you don’t do that, they are using the “scare tactic” that you’ll have to pay to use the Apps.
They won’t be getting permission from me….
If worst comes to worst and they start charging a fee to use either social media… It’ll be time for me to move on and find another app…
