I'm trying not to post "surprised pikachu face" memes about all of the people discovering that tiktok is now censoring coverage of protests, and mentions of Epstein.

And I'm watching as everyone tramples over to Yet Another Corporate Platform where the same thing will happen in a few dozen months.

Ya'll need to get out for real.

Or at least have a backup that doesn't run on OPP (Other People's Platforms)

I've been out of TikTok for a while. Where are they trampling to?

Out of curiosity. I don't plan to visit whatever corporate platform.

"UpScrolled"

Which sounds like a better place than twitter, but it's not open, someone else could be in charge later... same old same old.

@futurebird

I'm kind of grateful it's not YouTube Shorts.

@springdiesel

An upside of youTube is it can be embedded in other sites. While tiktok and most new platforms can't they want to lock the users in.

I do expect youTube to try to eliminate this someday, but because they are old their algorithm is much less influential.
