I refuse TikTok, and I would refuse Messenger too if I didn’t have a whole bunch of people I talk to that refuse to leave Facebook.
I am however thinking about uninstalling Messenger so that communication with me will be hampered by those who don’t switch to something more reasonable. No instant connection e.g. Replies will be delayed, and so on.
Yeah, id lose a ton of communication if I stopped messenger and my friends would just call me the crazy conspiracy guy. “We dont care if they steal our data and spy, we are being spied on anyways, why do you care?” They say.
I hate this argument. It’s like when I tell my kids not to spill on their clothes and my wife is like “their clothes are already dirty, go easy”. I’m like that’s not the point. The point is to teach them to not spill. Not to try and avoid sullying an already sullied shirt. ffs, this concept flies above some people’s heads sometimes.
Still not worth anything to install that spyware on my phone, got it.
That’s the problem with the problem with social media.
It isn’t the apps.
It’s they people are so fucking stupid and addicted they’re going to keep feeding it.
The amount of metrics that TikTok collects though, no thanks.
Great point.
I take that back. It’s also the apps.
But Facebook messenger is cool amirite
Definitely not
I was being sarcastic. So many people I know say TikTok bad mmkay but insist on using FB messenger for personal comms.
The sarcasm was clear to me at least. 😔
