> Would people ever pay for a social network.
The answer is YES, and people already pay for social network:
- LinkedIn uses a freemium model. While B2B it is a social network
- Industry associations: I belong to 2 that have a yearly membership, the best benefit is access to the other members by way of a director, FB group, and an intranet.
- dating sites/apps are pay-for-play social networks

With the evil trends of FAANG+MSFT I see the long term meta-trends that all the free services that are pervasive today including - but not limited to - social networks, will have subscription paid equivalents.
To see present companies doing well in this new broad space: Signal, Purism.
