There's no world where I go back to facebook

This totally sounds like a "we're dying and we're taking you down with us" move lol. It's not like any ex-tiktokers are going to create Facebook pages after leaving.

Is this because they can't buy it?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

I'm sure that's a big part of it.

Can’t wait for TikTok to cement itself as countercultural. It doesn’t matter how much money Facebook spends. They will always be boomer shit

Can't wait for a more privacy friendly tiktok alternative (if people want to use a service like tiktok anyway)

I know peertube exists as a federated YouTube, but it seems like streaming video is still prohibitively expensive for most independent groups

I don't mind countercultural but TikTok right now is controlled by US. China only have power over chinese version of TikTok which is Douyin.

In a perfect world it would work well, then they turn it against google and finally themselves :)
