$14/mo is a bit steep, but back when I actually used Facebook, I’d have dropped $5/mo to not have any ads (or sponsored posts) and have more control over my feed. That sounds glorious… but $14/mo is a huge waste of money for the cesspool Facebook has become.

Would this plan remove all ads? Only then I'd consider it.
