A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

“I would rather stare at a language I can't understand than to ever use a social media [platform] that Mark Zuckerberg owns,” said one user in a video posted to Xiaohongshu on Sunday.

TikTok is owned by ByteDance. Mark Zuckerberg does not own ByteDance

Don't they do the same things? In fact TikTok spies more stuff, but they just don't sell it to private entities as much.

Tiktok doesn't push neo-Nazi propaganda as aggressively as X did and it doesn't censor news with class consciousness like Meta does.

X is Musk, which is TL;DR quite different

it doesn't censor news with class consciousness like Meta does

Maybe? But they do manually tell the algorithm to heavily favor the elite’s videos with their “heating” tool.
