That, and it's arguable primary purpose is to serve ads. "People similar to you clicked on these ads" type shit. And I get it to a point, platforms need to support themselves, and unless it's a paid app, that doesn't keep servers running. But it'd be nice to just get one every 10 minutes, and not every 10 seconds, and also to opt out of tracking for served ads instead of just random ones.
