China ad driven as apposed to American ad driven. Same thing different countries so honestly regardless of which one I choose I get a ad riddled country made product. Lemmy and instances only have so much people And usually centered around america. I like TikTok because I get people who are not just American but other demographics and I get to learn about there life's and culture first hand through them without the annoyance of America giga corporation silencing them. Yes TikTok does to a degree but from my experience it's easier to find genuine people on TikTok then any other platforms.
That's why it attracts more nerodivergent people and LGBTQIA people in my own opinion is because you can be yourself and would get insta banned for certain subjects which I won't say here.
I'm not going blindly into TikTok. I know there's a lot of problems with it, idk why "China" always have to come up though, besides racism and propaganda.
Lemmy and mastodon had always seems to always be so. Just. Not accepting as much and lots of propaganda seems to be on here which is really fucking annoying andy instance ban list and lust of banned words is extensive here because of it. Feels like old reddit where there wasn't corporate bullshit just a lot of assholes and lots of good people but hard to tell which is which.
Also for assholes who will want to argue with me, belittle be or whatever. I'll just ban your username on my end so I never have to see you again.
