Going forward, adverts are not something that I want to be seeing in my social timeline. #Advertising has caused a lot of damage to online spaces in the last two decades, and it's unwelcome here. What started off as reasonable and discreet became surveillance heavy and in your face.

People promoting their artisanal arts and crafts, or book fairs, or tabletop games that they've made, are ok with me though. Cottage industries. Things which aren't just a ripoff or a grift and are more about the love of the thing rather than the love of money.
