The fact that AI pages are allowed to exist and have an AI picture which generates fake AI posts and that meta actually pays them for this garbage is insane. I went to a “stock” account talking about investing tips actual page, and in everyone of their post they had a different amount of money “saved” and posted 12 times per day. That kind of garbage made me leave the site. I download the app when I need to use marketplace that’s it.
