I have seen this discourse from time to time on here: people being horribly condescending about "content creators".
What this condescending tone utterly fails to capture is that many of these "content creators" are independent workers trying to use social media to make a living.
Meta is not their employer. But they are extremely dependent on the decisions Meta takes. And the power relationship between creators and Meta is, by a wide margin, in favor of Meta.
