I worked closely with FB (meta, kek) for many years, and the were all about mining users for money however they could. And the companies who made FB apps were also taxed heavily by FB for access to the naive, dumb, boomer consumer base they had.
They'd hit us for 30% right off the bat, for any transaction. Then in order to keep the users flowing in, we had to pay for ads.
We discovered a sudden sweet spot, one day, randomly it seemed. We spent 50% of our revenue on ads. Suddenly we were rolling in new users. Right at 50%.
>Hm, interesting, try 40%
>new user flow drops to old rates.
>okay, go back to 50%
>massive influx of new users
>holy shit, try 20% what is going on?
>back to the same rates roughly that we got at 40%
>kick it back to 50%
>huge flow of new users, daily, constantly pumping new users into the app
So we discovered not only does FB tax you up front 30%. They basically withhold organic new user traffic until you take the money you have left, and start dumping it back into ads.
And no, sustained user bases don't keep a company going. You have to keep flooding new users into it. And FB basically makes every FB app into it's bitch.
Let's say we were making $100k a day, we'd cut FB $30k right off the bat. So we have $70k. And suddenly we had to cut $35k back to ads, and boom, we're rolling.
But we were cutting huge checks to FB. $65k a day or more, just to get our $35k.
And believe me the numbers got bigger than that, by a large margin. FB then opened us up to other secret initiatives like getting us to convince users to simply input their credit cards. No charge, just give the data to FB, and get free stuff.
FB really, really wanted people's credit cards in their system. They reimbursed us like $10 per sign up, it was wild. What an evil place

>In October 2023, court documents in the US alleged Meta of designing its platforms deliberately to develop addiction in children using them. The company knowingly allowed underage users to hold accounts, violating the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. According to whistleblower Frances Haugen, the company intentionally targets children below the age of 18.[83][84]

>In 2021, an internal document leak from the company then known as Facebook (now Meta Platforms, or Meta) showed it was aware of harmful societal effects from its platforms, yet persisted in prioritizing profit over addressing these harms. [...] Primarily, the reports revealed that, based on internally-commissioned studies, the company was fully aware of negative impacts on teenage users of Instagram, and the contribution of Facebook activity to violence in developing countries. Other takeaways of the leak include the impact of the company's platforms on spreading false information, and Facebook's policy of promoting inflammatory posts. Furthermore, Facebook was fully aware that harmful content was being pushed through Facebook algorithms reaching young users. The types of content included posts promoting anorexia nervosa and self-harm photos.
Capitalism working as intended.
