Text for readability:

So far, Americans using RedNote have said they don't care if China has access to their data. Viral videos on TikTok in recent days have shown Americans jokingly saying they will miss their personal "Chinese spy," while others say they are purposefully giving RedNote access to their data in a show of protest against the wishes of the U.S. government.

"This also highlights the fact that people are thirsty for platforms that aren't controlled by the same few oligarchs," Quintin said. "People will happily jump to another platform even if it presents new, unknown risks."

Maybe y'all should stop screeching bootlicker schill Nazi with every moderate take and replace the mods with reasonable people trying to mod instead of censoring opposition vote points.

So so so many people talking about confusion and platform design and privacy. It's the users and moderation pushing regular people away.

Also our developers are too poor to ge oligarchs.

Turns out normalizing mass surveillance makes people not care about being spied on

I don't want TikTokers on the Fediverse, thankyouverymuch.

The TikTok algorithm shows you what you want to see. My TikTok algorithm was history, math, and language learning content.

you can defederate with groups but gatekeeping the entire fediverse feels wrong

[–] [email protected] -5 points 5 days ago

So be it. Tiktok is one big slop pool of content. The fediverse doesnt have to be. Tiktok needs to be. I'm okay with advocating for that separation, sorry.

I do! Their opinions affect us; the fediverse reduces a social problem.

What should we expect from people who voted in a rich, old, white guy as their savior.

You can't put videos on pixelfed, right? That unfortunately means it's not a competitive platform. Video is what people seem to want.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You can. Your instance just needs to up the max size or turn it on.

Example from someone who only has one video as the sample content. https://pixelfed.social/p/Sarahschannel/785335877987047968
