Tiktok still seems to have the best short/mid-form philosophy and history/political content - excluding the ones that moved to Instagram or something. Some of the creators on there are legit amazing, based on the videos they make.

I’m always blown away by how good their algorithm is, too. It’s way better than any other site, by like a mile. The only thing that keeps me from using it more is how long the videos I get recommended are. They’re usually too mind-blowing and I can’t just start another video right away without a minute to process it or look it up in more detail elsewhere.

That said, the things my friends send me are absolutely not. It’s insane how they never get anything remotely interesting - it’s all bottom-tier trashy stuff on their feed. You def reap what you see on there
