- rvnx 2y agoIt's about the fact whether ads are justified or not. If users provide the content for free, there are less good reasons to justify adding ads there.

- rvnx 2y agoThe value comes from user-generated content, just like on Instagram—individual posts may not matter, but their collective contribution is what creates value.
