Oddbean new post about login | logout It’s inevitable though. Even mastodon has a version of TikTok now.no clue if anyone actually uses it or if it’s any good. It’s new. Looply if I remember right.
No doubt nostr needs better video-centric apps. But how to avoid the advertising model destroying it for users is another question I guess.
Bring back Vine…. But also, the legacy platforms fed people video. Video gained traction because they forced it. Then culture took it on and demanded it. But video is for entertainment, mindless zombie scrolling. It’s no way to communicate 1:1 like we do now on here. I know of few who met and made friends via mindless scrolling of trendy videos. Connection is still the killer app.
Advertising on centralized apps gets crazy as users simply can’t opt out or customize what they’re being bombarded with.
💯 And on TikTok they’re showing ads like every 2-3 videos you scroll past. It’s really bad.
And (like all big tech) their app is bloated spyware.

That’s one way of looking at it. The other is people don’t have time.
