Open the app and pull down, see what the algorithm presents you. It once provided useful content. It and the whole company is now a personal propaganda tool. I don’t even follow Musk. Seems he’ll inevitably fall out with Trump for taking up so much attention.

Well RTE is just a propaganda outfit, has been for years. Other than propaganda it's full of woke nonsense. Not even sure if they have Tom and Gerry anymore.

All I get is American politics and posts from people nationally that I'm ideologically opposite. Clearly trying to provoke an inflammatory response is the new algorithm.

I only use the “following” tab these days. I can’t cope with the “for you” hellhole

It’s really sad what TikTok is turning into. Every day I open the app hoping to see creative content, news, current affairs, or even the galamsey videos that usually dominate my FYP, and instead I’m being served livestreams of people doing the most suggestive things imaginable just to collect gifts and make money. Before anyone says “the algorithm is showing you what you watch”, no. I don’t watch that content. I don’t follow those people. I don’t go looking for it. So why is it constantly finding its way onto my FYP? What worries me isn’t even me. It’s the kids on the app. Social media has become a place where children and teenagers watch adults being rewarded with views, attention, followers, gifts and money for increasingly sexualized content. Whether people like it or not, young people learn from what they constantly see being promoted. And that’s my issue. We have platforms specifically meant for adult content. Why should a mainstream app used by millions of young people be allowing this kind of nonsense to flourish? Why wait until an account becomes huge before taking action? Why allow livestreams to continue when it’s obvious what they’re doing? The excuse can’t always be “we’re moderating.” At some point people have to ask whether enough is actually being done. This morning I opened TikTok looking for content to post about galamsey. Instead, this is what appeared on my screen. Honestly, it’s getting ridiculous.
