In don’t see Facebook surviving such a transition. Without the manipulation and data mining for engagement you’re just left with a few features that is probably easily subsumed by other services in some federated fashion. It would provably look as exciting as hosted e-mail from the business side.

Only a minority of users would pay for it. <1% of the users going by YT numbers .

It is not either free or paid , it can be both . It satisfies a need for the people willing to pay for the privilege of not seeing ads and gives additional revenue even.

No radical business changes required only a ideological change to treat their users as humans in required from FB
