Imagine all the conversations if #China didn't block Chinese users from using every single widely used foreign app, platform, or social network.

Even #TikTok, remember, blocked interactions between Chinese users and those abroad. #RedNote will soon follow in creating that wall.

I was opposed to the whole “TikTok ban” situation. But ByteDance may have proven Congress’s point.

Biden noted he would not enforce the ban and allow the next administration figure it out. ByteDance still turned off their services to Americans, blaming the Biden admin.

And then they turned it back on, thanking Trump.

The congressional mandated ban was already in flux. The shutdown was self-imposed. This was all planned.

Maybe congress actually did have a point.

Young people in Taiwan are being exposed to pro-China content on TikTok which is influencing their identity and attitudes towards China

According to research, TikTok’s algorithm suggested a “disproportionately high ratio” of content favorable to the CCP compared with other apps such as Instagram or YouTube. Users of the platform tended to hold a significantly more favorable view of China’s human rights record

Loops is the ethical TikTok alternative the fediverse needs.

Unique safety features, mental health protections, and user controls you've never seen before.

Open source launch coming later this month - and you'll see why we took the time to get this right ✨

Following the success (sarcasm!) of my previous post "Battle of IMs", I decided it's time to write another post where I try to articulate in a technical but snarky way my view on the wonderful world of social media, and which one is best among the mainstream and non-mainstream ones. This is a long post, reviewing 14 different "socials".

I've been busy wrapping up the final parts of Loops ActivityPub federation!

We will ship with two modes (Open and Lockdown), the latter allowing you to restrict federation with allowed instances only (and enforced via AuthorizedFetch)

You can also disable Federation support

I'll have a better ETA this weekend after some more testing ✨

Thanks to phpstan, this may even ship this weekend 🚀
