I hate TikTok too, but it’s not going away without comprehensive legislation regulating social media. Until then, a fediverse alternative that’s not ruled by corporate algorithms would at least be a form of harm reduction. Think of it like a Safe Injection Site program; it’s not great that they’re still using, but at least they’re getting clean needles.

Exactly. I have ZERO desire to use this app, or even PixelFed for that matter. Does that platform even have a legit user base or just bots?
