It was the social-media equivalent of Costco implementing a 10-items-or-fewer rule, or a 24-hour diner closing at 7 p.m.—a baffling, antithetical business decision for a platform that depends on engaging users (and showing them ads) as much as possible.

Stop using the platform, if you insist on continuing to use it, you deserve the shit show you are getting. End of story.
