Oof, the article goes on to say all the platforms failed. X just failed a bit more.

This is going to lead to some “well, they’re all about the same.” discourse shenanigans.

What did TikTok do better than the rest? Be annoyingly vertical and short form?

I'm genuinely surprised something owned partly by the Chinese government isn't at the bottom.

On the Chinese only servers they forbsure don't allow it

Luckily my instance is defederated from the worst one (IMO)

Lemmy is definitely a lot more accepting of queer people though which I really dig
