I'm not familiar with opIndia but the article you've cited is unhinged. It cites a DailyMail article which uncritically amplifies anti-trans campaigners, who are basically saying that it's a problem for trans people to publicly share stuff about their transition. The opIndia article says "The flood of such content on TikTok, an immensely popular social media platform among the youth, is a serious problem that needs to be addressed at the earliest." There's a lot of dumb stuff on TikTok, but trans people not being suppressed isn't really one of them. And there might be _toxic_ stuff on TikTok, but in the context of an article where youth are pushed to material about suicide, linking to an article calling for the suppression of trans perspectives as if that was part of the same problem is super shady. As for Douyin having a different algorithm, I'd point out that within China it was still viewed as being harmful enough to kids that they put in a 40m daily time limit, and restricted it to specific hours. I'm guessing it's also not great for kids there. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58625934 https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58625934
