You guys really need to take a chill pill. You guys are such conspiracy theorists.
My Tiktok is just cat videos. I literally never get fed anything else. Cat, technology, and science.
I'm not sure how they are fucking with me.
I guess you think showing me content is fucking with me, because you're only used to the 30K active users on Lemmy, and the minimal amount of content posted here per day, lmao.
Truly, though, this community is extremely toxic. You're all hating on me, downvoting me, because Tiktok is feeding me cat videos.
I don't see how I was toxic in any way. Besides, this isn't reddit. There is no karma, so if people downvote you, who cares? That just means that people think you're wrong.
Here's a thought, let's say you're perfectly satisfied with how your content delivery/algorithm. You're a responsible adult who can manage your screen time. Should TikTok be doing more to protect youth(those most vulnerable) from predatory content? There's been quite a few studies now and even states suing TikTok for their effects on youth's mental health.
You're making a few assumptions about me(implying I'm living under a rock or something)... Unfortunately I spend a large part of my day on the computer due to work and I grew up with the internet. So I try to spend what free time I have reading/studying, and maybe consume a bit of streaming in a day.
If you knew the horrible content that most kids are being served now, it would make your head roll. I don't let my kid watch YouTube but his cousins are all crazed on tiktok content. Look up skibidi toilet.
The irony.
