If that happens, what is the current alternative that everyone will migrate to?
I tried loops. Its not possible to post content. I sent a bug report and got no response
When did you last try it?
Maybe 3 months ago?
They released the 1.0.0 alpha 28 days ago.
I just checked again. There’s still no way to browse or upload videos. There’s a link in the lefthand navbar for “Videos” that just says “No videos found”
But their is no button to upload. The website is useless.
I think they expect people to use their mobile app
Some may use some work around to use the international version which will be free of us control.
They’re trying to turn it into truth social. I want to say people won’t fall for it, but I’m sure some will
Most probably don’t care or don’t know, and hence, will fall for it.
That’s why this is so terrifying. Twitter at least had a politically engaged userbase, so people noticed the changes. Tiktok users get political content only incidentally, and has far fewer actual journalists. They are going to get manipulated beyond reason.
So far in Spain as of now, talking of Vox (right wing) gets your content shadow banned (it’s been the case for a month or so)
but that’s now, maybe if that happens the censorship will flip sides
So nothing changes.
I used to think China was authoritarian for banning western social media platforms.
Now I completely understand and sympathise with them
Behind the fig leaf, the argument was never “China’s surveilling our kids!” but rather “China’s getting data about kids that rightfully belongs to the U.S., to slice and dice how we see fit. This evil must be stopped!”
Wonder if it’ll start heavily promoting the new EA game, Battlewoke.
