I have fully transitioned to using Lemmy and Mastodon right when third party apps weren’t allowed on Spez’s place anymore, so I don’t know how it is over there anymore.
What do you use? Are you still switching between the two, essentially dualbooting?
What other social media do you use? How do you feel about Fediverse social media platforms in general?
(I’m sorry if I’m the 100th person to ask this on here…)
China ad driven as apposed to American ad driven. Same thing different countries so honestly regardless of which one I choose I get a ad riddled country made product. Lemmy and instances only have so much people And usually centered around america. I like TikTok because I get people who are not just American but other demographics and I get to learn about there life’s and culture first hand through them without the annoyance of America giga corporation silencing them. Yes TikTok does to a degree but from my experience it’s easier to find genuine people on TikTok then any other platforms.
That’s why it attracts more nerodivergent people and LGBTQIA people in my own opinion is because you can be yourself and would get insta banned for certain subjects which I won’t say here.
I’m not going blindly into TikTok. I know there’s a lot of problems with it, idk why “China” always have to come up though, besides racism and propaganda.
Lemmy and mastodon had always seems to always be so. Just. Not accepting as much and lots of propaganda seems to be on here which is really fucking annoying andy instance ban list and lust of banned words is extensive here because of it. Feels like old reddit where there wasn’t corporate bullshit just a lot of assholes and lots of good people but hard to tell which is which.
Also for assholes who will want to argue with me, belittle be or whatever. I’ll just ban your username on my end so I never have to see you again.
hey woah there why are you using evil speech now, did I say something wrong? The only reason I mentioned china was cuz I wanted to differentiate between cool foss community driven thing and evil cooperate state driven thing.
I wasn’t trying to make china seem bad, it just was the case that they have some influence. To me, it’s really just the propaganda part and potential censorship, but that’s it.
The thing with Lemmy I do understand. Then again, there are other instances which are have less or even no censorship.
If I said something else which made you mad, please tell me what it was. I’m not the best with picking up on this stuff.
