For those of you who have TikTok, where are you going after it’s banned? (hexbear.net)

Assuming you’re going to replace it with anything, where are you going. I downloaded rednote which is kind of like Chinese instagram because it’s a perfect F-you to meta and everyone else to go straight back to Chinese tech. I’ve also heard the names Neptune, lemon8 and a few others thrown around. Where are you guys headed?

(However I believe we’re truly losing something important that won’t be replaced, TikTok was one of a kind in the fact that everyone was on it despite it not being American)

Unfortunately probably folks in the US will move to Instagram or to YouTube. I already see a ton of Tiktok stuff literally just copy pasted into YouTube, it's flooding the platform. I assume Instagram is the same. Most folks won't care that these platforms will be much more heavily curated and controlled
