Once your spend is high enough to get an account rep things get ooookaay. But in general the ad tools are bloated, buggy and loaded with dark patterns. And have been from the beginning.

Most serious advertisers and agencies use expensive third party tools that manage your ads using the advertising APIs.

I don’t think it’s worth “running up the flagpole”.

Agencies yes, most serious advertisers probably not.

But even the b2b parts of Facebook are run like a b2ç business, because that's the culture.
