I mean, if TikTok US were more like TikTok China, with emphasis on educational content, there would never have been a problem.

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.

Don't give a shit
On the plus side pixelfed seems to be popping off. And every time one of the big companies f up, we get a slow trickle of new users. Which is much more sustainable in the long run.
Alright. I'm finally hearing enough about pixelfed to start looking into it. Are there any good resources for jumping in?
I see it's decentralized. Do I just go to pixelfed.org and create an account, or is this like the fediverse where you have to pick an instance to get started?
It's part of the Fediverse, so if you're on a Pixelfed instance you can see other servers running Mastodon, et al. Pick an instance that seems like it feels nice to you.
"... reports Chinese state propaganda branch, through western media ..." 🙄
I had a hunch TikTok users weren't the sharpest tools in the shed, but now I know for certain.
There is already a thread here: https://beehaw.org/post/18010336
sorry, I probably should have checked, I have no objection to mods deleting this thread if this violates the rules here
No big deal, you're good.
I am not a mod, but I guess this happens sometimes. No stress I would say.
Good.
