TikTok looks the same, but it's like one of those of people from Invasion of the Body Snatchers now. If you try to say something too far outside of the norm, it will point at you and scream weirdly to tell the overlords who to get. I deleted it off my phone. Not worth getting got. - ThreadSky

I hadn’t deleted the app yet .. but I refuse to go back in since it went dark
We’ve been infiltrated adios
My kids think I’m crazy 🤷🏻‍♀️

Scoopz is the new video platform.

tr33b4rkw00f.bsky.social•37 days ago

They saw the algorithm worked really well and needed to get Zuckerberg in on it to keep tabs. No thanks

ambrosia1875.bsky.social•38 days ago

Saw someone compare it to pet cemetery. It’s not the same when it came back…

focusedoninfinity.bsky.social•37 days ago

Ooooof great comparison 😬

ambrosia1875.bsky.social•36 days ago

Right, what was the little boys name they brought back, Gage? Gage came back but he was not really Gage.

bravobarnacle.bsky.social•38 days ago

I’m really torn. I’m still getting news there I’m not seeing anywhere else or seeing it there first. I keep thinking of the handmaids whispering to each other at the market. Yes the market is bugged, but if I don’t go the world doesn’t change outside and I know even less.

Also, now is the time to join values aligned Discords bc that's where lots of info/organizing is going to springboard from. Discord itself is not safe, but it is siloed into so many different servers, many of them rw, that the feds will have a hard time splitting it up for a while.

focusedoninfinity.bsky.social•37 days ago

When engaging I'll do so from a browser on a desktop with a VPN, downloading everything I can off there to share elsewhere, and otherwise treating the app like a sporty snake at the end of a stick. Whatever I need that snake for, it's going to bite eventually.

listlessinlilac.bsky.social•37 days ago

my fyp knew me too accurately to keep. they don't need to know what boxes i fit into

gottasaveme.bsky.social•38 days ago

Someone likened it to when a TV show switched characters like Aunt Viv, like we aren't supposed to notice.. Never the same

halimarebecca.bsky.social•37 days ago

Deleted TT as soon as it came back online. Not playing that game anymore.

geminidrmz.bsky.social•37 days ago

Just saw a video a woman posted where she said the word “inauguration” and when she posted it, it was normal but it was like edited after she posted it, the audio messes up and essentially censors the word and the audio doesn’t match up to her mouth the entire rest of the video.

altrocks.bsky.social•38 days ago

Same. Deleted account from the web interface cause I didn't want to give them another download in the app store. The censorship on there was already getting bad before the blackout. Now it's overt and the bias is very clear.

grandpafriend-kel.bsky.social•38 days ago

People were treating it like a bastion of free left-leaning speech and maybe for many it was but funnily enough the algorithm was showing me more political content on Instagram and more funny apolitical videos on tiktok. I know that's anecdotal but I swear it must have been rife with shadowbanning

melissadeltoro.bsky.social•37 days ago

I deleted my account and took it off my phone. We know who’s running the show and it’s nicht gut.

rhithecat.bsky.social•37 days ago

As soon as that message popped up I deleted Tik tok and downloaded this app

sleepinforest.bsky.social•37 days ago

Kinda glad I never joined, now. Which is unfortunate, cuz I wanna support creators I like as much as possible, buuuuut- I'm not into the Trump circle jerk.

found-a-pinecone.bsky.social•36 days ago

The second it was unbanned I scrolled for 15 minutes, decided something was horribly off, and deleted it on instinct

gram-y.bsky.social•37 days ago

Did you see this:

My daughter keeps having to unfollow Vance on FB.

slowdog.bsky.social•37 days ago

No way in hell that part of Trump's "deal" with Tiktok is to promote "conservative" values.
AKA Censor anything critical of conservatism.

badmojo619.bsky.social•37 days ago

I deleted it as soon as it came back up- not worth it to me.

jestersquirrel.bsky.social•37 days ago

Exactly the same here. Sucks that the facists are in control of almost all social media platforms now

shaniyataylor.bsky.social•38 days ago

Im so happy I dont have mine anymore. I literally saw ppl on there making fun of the ppl that did delete it

reaptress.bsky.social•37 days ago

If anyone is looking for alternatives and more information on where to go see my profile I pinned some platforms and resources for you

Please share the word, and stay strong - keep fighting the good fight

rather-be-readin.bsky.social•38 days ago

I deleted my account when it kept crashing every time I tried to search one of my Canadian friends profiles.

karlamarx.bsky.social•38 days ago

Yeah I don’t trust it now either. I deleted my account yesterday

pupdeek99.bsky.social•37 days ago

It was already bad before the ban! Censorship on there is insane! Someone commented "Oh brother" and I finished the quote by replying to him saying "This guy STINKS!" And Tiktok flagged it for removal and wouldn't put it back up even after an appeal. It's a line from SPONGEBOB 😭😭

blue1ignis.bsky.social•38 days ago

Same I deleted it yesterday

tiagra.bsky.social•38 days ago

It is making it easier to stop going on and removing the addiction. Deleting it soon.

resigntosurrender.bsky.social•38 days ago

I deleted it off my main phone I kept it on a throw away phone I have that has nothing on it is set to factory mode. I did deleted everything off my TikTok account, disabled ads and deleted the cache, data thing but I’m not using it

redahenspur.bsky.social•34 days ago

Tt is government propaganda mill. You arnt missing anything

starsann.bsky.social•37 days ago

Same here, it was so fun and useful but it’s nefarious how they used it as a pawn, because of that and more I will never go back.
It just sux cuz some people make their living doing TikTok, but our gov don’t care about any of us, just the money.

oddwolfe19.bsky.social•37 days ago

I saw a post that said tiktok was like the guy who got bit by the zombie and is trying to hide the bite.

focusedoninfinity.bsky.social•37 days ago

💯💯💯

autumaton.bsky.social•37 days ago

I have three phones now. One is for Kevin Gates, a clone who opens his mouth, leading to a portal that contains the old algorithm and a safe dark room for scrolling, and the other two are just for work and checking my email or banking apps.

grandpafriend-kel.bsky.social•38 days ago

I wondered if you would stay on there. Yours was one of the last accounts I cared about, in your opinion is it same as or worse than Instagram?

incrediblesloth.bsky.social•37 days ago

Just waiting on TikTok to do this

vegemouse.bsky.social•38 days ago

Me when I saw TikTok returned.

focusedoninfinity.bsky.social•37 days ago

Hahaha REAL

ashyesand.bsky.social•37 days ago

💯 same here

advalentine.bsky.social•37 days ago

i immediately uninstalled because i noticed the algorithm change immediately

dogthropology.bsky.social•37 days ago

Tiktok is infected. Dont get bit.

branxdigital.bsky.social•37 days ago

Just getting back on it felt so icky.

kiwisinatrenchcoat.bsky.social•37 days ago

Yeah. This whole thing is weirdly distopian. I just hope that this won't spread to more platforms within the US or elsewhere, but who knows at this point.

remarkablebooklife.bsky.social•37 days ago

Yesterday, in a Live, I said, "Elon is talking like a nationalist..." and was immediately given a strike and ban from going Live for 7 days. I didn't get a complete thought out. TikTok is no longer what it was, & I don't think it will come back, if it even gets to stay around after the next 90 days.

focusedoninfinity.bsky.social•37 days ago

😬😵😯

mohato.bsky.social•37 days ago

It was never what you thought it was.

janetmckennalowry.bsky.social•38 days ago

All I saw was this guy, and he's filled with cockroaches.
