This is not going to help sell more ads plus how many people will pay for it.

I’m curious how many people would actually pay that. If they roll it out and it sticks, I wonder if more users will just start focusing on boosting their reach through other methods instead.

Facebook is huge so too is Instagram, if you need the exposure for your business then $14 a month is nothing, personal users are another thing.

For businesses, options could become even more popular for building visibility without relying as much on ads, especially if ad-free subscriptions take off and ads lose some of their audience.

You get no ads for that price?
