      None of them have the algorithm that makes Tiktok’s “For You Page” so attractive to most people. By far the best personalization algorithm of any social media I used during the pandemic. I basically never had to search for content or creators, the algo served me up a platter of people to follow that seemed directly tailored to me. That’s why it’s so addictive.

      And that’s probably why American social media giants are salivating at acquiring it. Reels/Twitter/YT Shorts algo doesn’t even come close tbh.

        No way TikTok will sell it WITH the algorithm. They can nerf it hard before that, and they will acquire a thing worse than YT Shorts.

          You know what, my friends who are still on it say that their FYP has been getting worse over the past 6 months or so. I wonder if you’re right.
