Windows would always give you a homeopathic dose of value to being kept from switching out.

I have friends that no longer use Facebook to chat, but still doomscroll their timeline anyway, because once per twenty ads there is one post that barely interest them. They won't switch, they won't even try other media, they just keep telling themselfs about those two times per year they got something useful out of it.
