"Pretending that you’re actually fixing the world’s privacy and national security issues by banning TikTok is just so very hot right now": University Of Oklahoma The Latest To Issue A Performative Ban Of TikTok https://www.techdirt.com/2022/12/29/university-of-oklahoma-the-latest-to-issue-a-performative-ban-of-tiktok/
Perhaps one way to solve this would be to build an alternative, perhaps decentralised and open so that people then have a choice of platform.
@zleap What a great idea! We could call it the fediverse, or something like that!
Indeed, I guess the closest we have at the moment to video sharing is peertube, could we some how modify so it is closer to what tik tok does, just without the data gathering?
Do we even need to do that, can we make an app that focuses more on that.
@BrideOfLinux
Would be a good idea that.
@zleap We could probably just add that functionality to the fediverse.
