Good on India for banning Tik Tok tbh.

Every time I've tried using Tik Tok it's blatantly obvious that it's designed solely for brainless consumption and instant gratification. Even more so than traditional social media (which is also a similar mess)

I dislike Tik Tok. But i also think people should have a right to decide what to use and what not.

@saiferion @quad I'm fine as long as I'm not forced to use it. I just wish people would think before they join a new social network especially one coming from China.

RIght. I would never touch that social app, not even with a stick. With China, there is always something up with their "generosity".

@saiferion @quad Also, I think we can strongly discourage people from using these apps by mocking Instagram and TickTock stars, and make them look like self-absorbed assholes. People used to do the same thing with bloggers back in the mid-2000s.

@xianc78 @quad
I really wish more people would adopt social networks where they can actually be in control of their data like Pleroma or Matodon... Sadly if there are no celebrities using them or if they are not easy to get into, their interest is null

@saiferion @quad I feel like people join the Fediverse for different reasons than Twitter or Facebook. Honestly, this feels more like a forum than a social network.
