@wavewalnut What I don't like about the big social media sites is, they are ad driven and companies mostly just post as an advertisement. What has this anything to do with "social"? It's so annoying. The bigger the platform, the worse it gets. I wish social media was about socializing with people, not with companies and brands.
- Yes I want company to communicate with customers so customers might be good supporters of the company.
  
  @wavewalnut I don't think social media platform is a good place to support customers. That's exactly a thing I don't want there to be. Use a place that is better suited for the task, such as forums. Maybe that's just me.
Only a brand would think in terms of favorite brands.
