Facebook ads are a huge waste of money

Are you on a VPN that scrambles your origination IP? I’ve found FB ads targeted incredibly well, I mean it’s a company pulling in 25bil in ad revenue a year….that doesn’t happen by accident.

Vrai smart, smart phone/facebook dumb.

Vrai smart, smart phone/facebook dumb.

I already told you I don't use my phone for social media.

This has become a way more interesting discussion than I thought it would be. It's like the tourist on FB who is very specific in their question, and people start responding with all kinds of nonsense that has nothing to do with what the person asked.

Tourist: I need a 2BR condo in PCB, preferably on the water.
FB Dumbass: There's a 1BR in Ft. Lauderdale for rent!

Tourist: Where can we have dinner that isn't seafood-centric? I have an allergy to shellfish.
FBD: C-Level has the best fried shrimp! And you can get a great lobster at Saltwater Grill!

Tourist: Are there any vegan restaurants in the city?
FBD: The steaks at Angelo's are amazing! Try the Tomahawk ribeye!

Well maybe you do such a good job being ambiguous on Facebook (inconsistent posts, liking extreme topics on different ends of the same issue, checking in at geographic locations all over the country) that the advertising algorithm doesn’t know what to do with you so you get the junk drawer equivalent of ads?

My feed is very curated, I’ve actually bought a few things suggested to me, same with Instagram, makes sense since both are services of Meta.
