They need to make it nice first, to reel people in. Once they are in and invested, that's when ads start.
Hey, I've seen that one!
It's a classic (enshittification tactic)
Well that sounds enshitty.
wait till you see the -ification.
that's when they start filtering out the genuine content and show you mostly promoted stuff
Yep. that's the classic shitty business model
Make a site that's attractive to use for a lot of people
Once you have enough people, lock in the users with network effect, walled garden, etc
Use the users to draw in businesses
Lock in the businesses and squeeze them for profit.
Squeeze users and businesses for money, abandon any maintenance and improvement on the site except for monetization.
It's the 3 D's.
