Right, it wasn’t their core product but it was a thing that had a clearer monetization strategy.
As far as I can tell no one has figured out a way to monetize private DM/group messaging via advertising. I actually deleted Facebook messenger from my phone in disgust a while back the first time I saw an advertisement mixed in among my list of conversations; I can’t even imagine what it would be like to have ads directly inserted in the messaging flow.
