3·5 months agoI was more of talking about if the program was actually performing as advertised. Guess I could have phrased that better.
I am all for this bs AI bubble popping. Extra points for it being China who did it, since there is a bunch of American propaganda fed about how China is pure evil.
Supposedly, it is open source. So, we will find out IF it is very soon.

That is where the effort comes in.
I can almost guarantee you can find a 18 or 21+ server for your interests. If not, I am sure there are servers dedicated to a similar age range that have channels you can chat in.
There are many people who have developed long term long distance relationships online. Keep in mind that building relationships takes time and effort. Anybody who is active on a server can be a long term friend.
Instant friendships are very hard to find. If you are lucky, you might stumble on one, but I would recommend not expecting that to be the norm.
I have found people with similar interests on Discord. Say what you will about the platform, it is good for finding communities.
The smaller the better.
Joining a large server might make you feel lost in the sea of voices or end up with a ton of spam. You might need to swap between a few to find a community that actually fits you. But it is worth it.
Honestly, my experience having discourse here has been so much better than reddit.
“Come on man, just give us an ID linked to your IP address! We won’t use it for anything, I swear! We will also make sure it is kept in the most secure servers!”
We bouta get space factories before affordable housing.
“Don’t worry, the government has safeguards against fascism.”
The only problem with that is it would perform logical actions that do not generate immediate short term profits. It might end up implementing 4 day work weeks and remote work, which are proven to increase productivity.
This article from 2024 gives a pretty good rundown as to why using this reasoning to ban Tiktok will set a very bad precedent:
If the govt cared about your data privacy, they would create data collection regulations that they could then use to ban tiktok if/when they violate them.
Disclaimer: I am not saying Tiktok is a great app with zero issues. This is a concern about causing long term problems by using a short term easy solution.
Biden SLAMS Meta!
“Too big to fail” = “We cannot give real concequences for bad actions, but we can take a cut after the fact in the form of a weak ass fee.”
Gives a new meaning to a Swiss knife.
Please read the article. Is it possible tiktok can/is being used for nefarious purposes? Yes. Is this specific argument, which will set a precedent to be used in future court cases, the way to go about banning the platform? No.
Yo, who tf downvoted this?
I am seeing a lot of “Good riddance, tiktok bad cause brainrot.” on other tiktok ban posts, so I’ll put this here:
