Some interesting definitions of "personal finance" all around. I'd suggest personal finance is topics like pensions, cost of living, mortgages.
Basic budgeting, which you seem to be referring to here is condescending at best to assume others are dumb enough to have it as an interest. Its so basic its like targeting advertising on people who use the alphabet.

You also have to keep in mind that this is personal finance in the context of Instagram/Facebook.
Like I actually value personal finance for myself, but I'm not getting any of my personal finance information from these sources. Much of the personal finance content on these platforms is just wealth porn, hustle culture, and get rich quick scheme type stuff.

Ok that makes sense, but is also depressing at the same time.
