The main thing that TikTok had going for it was it was open to both left and right contact and it would show you exactly the content you are interested in due to there algorithm.
It being purchased as caused a lot of issues with that feed being laggy and having issues with mostly left wing content spreading what is happening with Ice and stuff.
But yeah a endless scroll-able system isn't for everyone obviously.
I don't believe that for a minute. The CCP just had more subtle methods for suppressing content critical of them.
The owner is Singaporean not Chinese. Also yes there was plenty of content that I have been able to find that is critical of the CCP
Zhang Yiming? I could only find him denying he's Singaporean. Everything says he's Chinese. It could be bullshit if he's cozying up to the PRC, but that only proves my point.
