TikTok basically invented shorts. Maybe Snapchat. And everyone else’s sucks because their AI isn’t as good. It’s a toxic medium anyway. I with the Pixelfed creator would just focus on Pixelfed, I use that and it’s a total win, just needs some kinks worked out and more popularity.

Agreed, but I also wouldn’t mind if someone tried to work on an algorithm that would be entertaining while also being more beneficial to society. I don’t think it’s impossible to do and maybe people would be more okay with that as a replacement rather than having them quit cold turkey.

I tried it some time ago. No algorithm behind it so if someone wasn’t already watching random Wikipedia pages this won’t make them do it.
