I think there is currently Tumblr, Twitter, Mastodon, Bluesky and Facebook.

Anything else?

Buying advertising on Facebook seems to be the defacto way to influence masses.

Facebook has incredibly invasive data collection, aggressive algorithms and therefore very fine grained targeting options and it has a bit over 3 billion active monthly users (many of them 100% captive because they won’t have Internet without Facebook)

Unfortunately you have to have a Facebook account to publish ads on Facebook

And you need to give money to them, yes. But that was not the question.
