The Commission's investigation preliminarily indicates that TikTok did not adequately assess how these addictive features could harm the physical and mental wellbeing of its users, including minors and vulnerable adults.

But the algorithm isn't extremely personalized or optimized towards "engagement". In fact the only fediverse platform that comes close is Loops, and even that is light-years away from the psychological manipulation that goes into Tiktok algorithms.

100% agreed, my only quibble was calling Lemmy a text based site.

It can be text based and still contain images and video, no?

When its spread between all of them pretty evenly, is it still text based?
