Seems to be very similar to his The Enshittification of TikTok post, linked here on his own platform (no ads).
I didn't do a full comparison, though.
Its literally the same author, doing a follow-up to that article.
First, thank you for the comment.
Under different circumstances, however, I'd be more likely to take it to heart.
Certainly, I'm fully aware it's the same author, which should also be pretty evident from my comment, as I clearly stated that it was similar to his other article.
Kindly let me know if you have suggestions about how I could have worded my comment differently.
You may not have had the correct context, but I was merely pointing out that the sticker was similar to the one he wrote about TikTok, because others had mentioned how cancerous the ads were on the linked platform, and there was a small chance it was the same story, repackaged.
Of course, there was also the chance that someone might have missed it, which would be a shame, because it's a good read.
Until now, I'd been under the impression that my comment was simple enough for most, but I see now that a lot of my intentions with it were implied only, and maybe I should have brought bigger crayons.
