This lawsuit is an embarrassment using a compilation of anti social media arguments including misleading ones where the truth is twisted to make an argument.

>Meta also delays the time it takes to load the feed. “This is because without that three-second delay, Instagram wouldn’t feel variable.”

This isn't a fact. They are literally quoting speculation from Vice while making it seem like an official quote from Meta. Twitter and Instagram take time to load the feed because it's a nontrivial operation. I'd expect adding fake delays to your app will just cause people to get annoyed and use your app less.

They literally provide the exact source of the quote. It is speculation but it isn't unreasonable since we know they've made similar types if decisions to maximize engadgement.

While they quote the article they don't make it clear who they are quoting or that it is speculation. Yes, one can check the article to see if the quote is coming from information from Meta, but one shouldn't have to.

>we know they've made similar types if decisions to maximize engadgement

Name a similar decision. The closest thing to this I can think of is from gacha games and not social media sites.

.. like I said above: ".. you've much to learn on the tenaciousness of a highly focused legal team - which is core to this lawsuit."

That doesn't change my opinion that they are either arguing in bad faith or they are incompetent in the argument they are making.
