> grey facextok goo Your comment is a bit obfuscated, are you saying we, Europeans don't need Facebook, TikTok, etc.? But those platforms are super popular he

  Of course they don't need. In 2000s there were popular local social networks that were much better moderated and lost not because of quality, but because of unavailable investment (disk space to store users' photos and videos was expensive then) and lack of any moral restraints of US-based and China-based megacorps. So now we have this toxic crap and have to pretend content moderation is some intractable problem.

    Sounds a bit like you are saying that it would be perhaps better to have European-made social networks instead of leaving up the entire market for foreign companies.

    You guys did not create the conditions for something better to do better.
