Maybe for commercial social media? But personally I prefer if people just post if they want to, and for the platform to not exploit them for profit. Money just brings in too many bad incentives from all sides. Honestly, the more I think about it the more I don't know how a for-profit social media can ever truly work, in a positive manner.
