Doesn't Work
Had nothing but trouble with it for the last 3 months. It will not stay connected to my social media accounts. It won't share. As soon as I check the settings and reconnect everything, by the time I reload the saved draft of my post, it has disconnected again. I've tried using 3 different computers, different browsers, clearing caches, and having my host check settings. It will not work. I've sent in help tickets with them and nothing. I've paid $200 USD for this pile of crap.

Jetpack Social Plugin
I am using the FREE version. It is working so good. I am getting my articles out to social sites. A lot of people have seen my posts that would never have seen them otherwise. Best social plugin ever!

Social sharing right from your WordPress post ... improved
You're entering another dimension. A dimension not only of blog posts but of social sharing. Initially convenient and cool but somewhat limited, Jetpack Social Sharing has recently reached late adolescence. It lets you create the accompanying social posts from inside the WordPress blog post you’re writing (instead of manually in each social channel or via a paid service like Buffer) and has added customization per channel to its new abilities. (Note: I work for the company behind the software and have been whispering in the product designers’ ears.)

Very Easy To Use, Though The Partner Ecosystem Is Lacking
Super easy to use, but doesn't work with personal Facebook accounts nor personal Instagram accounts. I even tried to anchor a new Instagram business account to a Facebook page, so the plugin would pick it up, and the Instagram Android app just errored out. The plugin is pretty solid. But the partner ecosystem, i.e., what you can do with it, isn't all that great.

Works so easily out of the box
so easy compared to the standard Meta API system now in place, and to multiple social media sites to booy
