Great roundup and insights! Laughed out loud at the built-in Mercedes Benz screens that play TikTok. I hope people can't stream at red lights...

I didn't have time to go into it but what were they thinking?! This feels like that Snapchat filter that recorded your car speed - then was linked to speeding deaths - then was removed. It makes no sense 😄

The Fast Company article was a much-appreciated feature! A helpful wide-lens look at Instagram engagement. -- Re: Meta Verified, I don't see my non-profit employers seeing it as a good value. I wholeheartedly agree with your thought that paid verification should provide extra assets rather than reach and visibility!

Thanks!

Re: non-profits. It depends on why they use social — if it's for branding, I don't think they'd need it (especially at $180 a year!). But if they use social for fundraising, it might be useful for getting in front of more potential donors and the appearance of legitimacy?

Oh good point! At this time, just for branding, but we work closely with other groups that do fundraise frequently. I'd be interested to hear their take on it.
