The iron law of social media is that those paying for attention (soon, Twitter will prioritise the tweets of those who pay the $8, they claim) are less worthy of attention that those who get it organically. Like, there'll probably be exceptions at the edges, but it's likely a decent filtering heuristic. Even dating/hookup sites, who pioneered this mechanic, have backed away from it somewhat; Grindr allows people to pay for temporary boosts up the top of the grid, for instance, but it _rations_ this; there's a cooldown once a user does it. |
