Ok.
(I bet tiktok doesn’t shut down, but if it does I can’t wait for my kids to tell me about all the meltdowns at middle school over tiktok shutting down. Too many parents let their kids have unfettered internet access. No, mine don’t have tiktok.)
Cool.
Cool cool cool.
If you have $50 Billion, you can buy Tiktok.
I read that Elon Musk might buy it. But the CEO of Tiktok stated that, it isn’t true.
Why would he even need another social media? Besides, dictating what he wants on that site…and make it worse?
I like when Jack Dorsey ran Twitter. It is a crap hole now on there.
As for Tiktok, it won’t matter to me since I am not on there.
you can buy TikTok
Not if they’re not selling
Cannot wait to stop receiving these fuckin links
TikTok might start being not shit after this, but I’m not risking exposure until I have confirmation
Instagram reels about to get a whole lot worse
Stop. Don’t. Come back.
Fantastic cant wait!
Just fucking get it over with already! I’m tired of hearing about this shit every single day.
Cool
Bye tiktok
Or hello TikTok? I’m stoked to see a popular social network app without the US!
funny, that not one has been euro/asian/african centric so far, that has gained enough momentum or content to peak your interest yet, lol
If you know of an English speaking socisl network with those characteristics, do let me know
Is Loops ready for wide scale adoption and federation yet? We kinda need a replacement for tiktok, otherwise the addicts will jump to yet another Chinese platform.
Doesn’t look like it to me. I tried to sign up yesterday and haven’t received the validation email.
Edit: and the UI was very barren and minimal on the video I watched.
There’s a ton of domestic TikTok clones already, like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.

Nowhere near imo. Download the app and see for yourself. It needs WORK.
I’m honestly surprised more content creators on TikTok haven’t raised a stink about this from what I’ve seen. Agree with it or not, for some people this is their livelihood.
IIRC TikTok is rather top heavy in terms of income and this highest tier of influencers is diversified across all media channels anyway.
Regular folk have better luck making money on YouTube and Instagram so TikTok creators are unusual bunch. In my experience (which is very likely shaped by the algorithm) they are a mix of talent show performers, odd personalities and no longer relevant one hit wonders that got lucky. They’re mostly sad about losing that space because it’s so different to alternatives. I don’t think anyone that doesn’t have much money feels in power anymore so what are they going to do?
Yeah, but those affiliate links made people bank, especially during the holidays.
I actually got like half my ideas and my daughters from the tiktok shop. (Then went and bought it on Aliexpress)

Gen z better prep for 'em withdrawls… They love telling how they don’t drink or do drugs haha
Let’s see how they will cope.
Some app is about to explode
Rednote started exploding 3 days ago, it’s been #1 on android and apple stores since.
Gonna take us government few years to ban it haha
Honestly it’s probably more likely that China bans the US users first. RedNote is openly CCP incorporated and has very strict community rules and heavy censorship. Cleavage is censored, I was cracking up because people’s profile pics got denied and they couldn’t understand the Mandarin to know why.
