You do you, but I am old enough to be classically conditioned to hate any and all autoplay videos. The same for every video that the creator has added music in the back ground.

TikTok and any of its replacements will never be for me, and thats okay. Not everyone is gonna be into gay sex, but I sure am. Sall good.

That said, TikTok shouldn't be banned. We should have a digital bill of rights so no service/app/corporation, regardless of country of origin, is able to abuse the data of the people for profit or maleficence. Our data comrades.

Unfortunately the poltical system has people discussing which is worse, genocide or genocide+, instead of positive rights legislation.

Trump truly is the gift that keeps on giving to the 1%. So long as he is around, all anyone will talk about is trump trump trump. How they hate trump or love trump or what trump is up to or what laws he broke. The longer we talk about Trump, the less we talk about finding a peaceful way forward for this nation. The less we talk about replacing First-past-the-post voting.

Chat, should I do it?

See, if you're already referring to others as "chat", it probably means you should have deleted it sooner.

You’re an adult and can make your own decisions.

Hopefully, anyway. I’m an adult and can barely make any decisions, but I hope I’m an outlier.

Why "clearly no"?

[–] Sundial@lemm.ee 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No. Wait for loops to come out and contribute there.

Who's hosting the data for fruit loops? Where are the files stored?

[–] Sundial@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's by the same guy that made Pixelfed. There's a support page at the bottom of the link that answers some of your questions.

[–] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

Will check it all out, thx

Why wouldn't you? Do you not like the content you find on it? If not, why are you thinking of downloading it?

[–] blackbrook@mander.xyz 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Liking the content or not is missing the point. The question anyone should be asking is whether they like how the algorithm manipulates them by shaping what the content in they see.

This applies to all social media, BTW.
