I mean I hate Facebook because they messed up the feed, but looking at it from their point of view, why would anyone advertise if they just give you an rss(like) feed to your fans? Is there some balance of algorithmic feed with ads where it isn’t awful and some people buy ads?
Maybe there is but Facebook is just too greedy?
