Why doesn't Facebook have any competitors? Single company monopolies are a disaster. There's no progress, just misery for consumers. That's not capitalism, it's more like communism, but without a responsible government running the show.

I live in Switzerland and we don't like Europe and these decisions. Every country must be sovereign. However, I only have Facebook, Messenger (and SMS RCS) Facebook is the most complete network With video, text to follow distant friends, business, associations, hobbies, clubs etc. I wouldn't pay like for Youtube but I hope not for even more advertising than now. Another, more intelligent decision has been taken for next spring: Obligation that messaging systems can be compatible with each other (for example writing on WhatsApp to a friend on Messenger or on Messenger to a friend on Signal) However, this will perhaps be a reduced service.

MICK, 31 Oct 2023social media ask money from user? what a suckerbutt..!! rem... moreJust ask yourself if you can stop using meta services.
Just ask yourself if you can use other "add free" social media
Just ask yourself if your friend and family are willing to change to this "add free" social media
Remember the role of social media: it is to let you connect to those you know.

I'll happily pay if they allow me to only see content from other paying customers and from my friends. I'm not interested in retards hiding behind fake names just spreading their poison. Same with "X".

Anton.-, 30 Oct 2023Soon we will have to pay again to use WhatsApp, save this commentIt'd be great.
Finally it'll give enough reason for people to move away from that crapp.Signal is far better but their user base is too low.
Genuinely i want to use signal only but because my friends & my office works are mostly on whatsapp,so I have to use it too.
If Whatsapp beings subscription fee then more people will be encouraged to use alternatives.
It all seems good enough for me.

Without strict rules & regulations,such corporates are gonna flourish with their sheer greed.
With such weak regulations,these greedy corporates were inevitable. Someone just have to find a loop-hole in system or get politicians to support their agenda. Our leaders are too busy in capitalising their power & get more votes.
Facebook,Apple,Google,X,Samsung,Microsoft etc. These are the inevitable outcome of such greed & regulatory incompetence.
But anyway someone who's planning on spending their hard earned money for these stupid/evil social media,should reconsider his priorities in life.
Spending your money on such platform,that sold every bit of your data only for Ad revenue,doesn't seem logical.
But in the end its your money folks,we've seen people spending on much more stupid things,then by those standards this one seems fine.
Just is the world.
