White people using Xiaohongshu are like women using Grindr. Yes, you can do it, but you should consider killing yourself instead.

I don't understand why they have to use another Chinese app, why can't people just switch to YouTube shorts or whatever?

Youtube shorts and insta reels have a dog shit algorithm. Tiktok is just so much better.

I think its mostly just the quantity on TikTok is way higher, yt shorts is still relatively minor vs the full videos

you run out of new content quickly. instagram has a similar issue, to a much lesser degree, where they constantly re-show the same videos in the scroll-scroll-scroll mode

YouTube shorts is an actual pain for content creators. They're encouraged to make shorts by YouTube but the type of people that enjoy shorts often hate videos that go past 5 min.

Could be, but I hope Trump saves tiktok. Then I'd hate him a little less.

We already know he has no principles but saving tiktok would still be pretty extreme after his china posturing imo.

Bloomberg reported Trump wants to keep tiktok alive by executive order.

Yeah I know. He mentioned it in that stream with that weird rightoid zoomer twink where they sat in his car and listened to music.

I still think it's r-slurred tho, but I fully support the ban and hope it goes through.

AntiAmerican sentiment coupled with international influencers having convinced the users those platforms are shit.

Plus the algorithms might genuinely be worse, idk. I saw a trans girl complaining about youtube shorts yesterday because it kept recommending joe rogan and she's a fall-in-line progressive. Assuming that's true, i can see that user liking stereotypically nerdy male content (vidya, warhammer, etc.) and Google being lazy enough to be like "oh users who like that must be right-adjacent enough to like rogan"

YouTube algorithms are pretty lazy, but I 99% guarantee you that this trans girl only keeps getting recommended Rogan's Shorts because she leaves angry comments (i.e. engagement) on every one she gets recommended.

If someone's angry enough to publicly complain about getting recommended content, they're angry enough to have left a comment like "I can't believe Youtube would blah blah blah." We've all seen em.

I find youtube's algo to be pretty good, specifically for music. I have found so many amazing albums via youtube recommendations, particularly international bands that I would have zero chance finding organically :marseyjamming:

Yeah Spotifycels are missing out. YouTube is straight up unsettling with how well they know my freak butt music taste.

Truth. Every single night when getting into bed I go to my youtube subscriptions to watch my boomers talk about boomer games. And every single night in the Shorts section it crams in there even though I don't watch Shorts, is some goof playing cover songs on his keyboard. Every... single... night, even though I can't remember once ever watching people play cover songs unless it's a really hot chick and I'm just staring at her T&A for a few mins. That sonofab-word was in my feed last night, will be in my feed tomorrow, and will be there seemingly every day until he dies or youtube catches on fire.

YouTube seems really dependent on watch history. If you've watched one video a couple times, it will start incessantly showing you that stuff. It only seems to not count if you IMMEDIATELY skip past it.

Regardless of watch history, it also seems to just throw in random videos to see what sticks.

I have never seen a rogan short and half of mine are about guns. She might just be rage watching rogan.

everyone i talked to who uses tiktok says everything else is garbage compared to it, so thats probably it

It's unironically true. Youtube shorts only shows you slop similar to channels you follow. Insta does the same. Tiktok somehow learns exactly what you like, and manages to show you new channels with 500 followers that cater to your interests.

Overall all these apps are of course just wasting time.
