I think the popularity of TikTok is already declining and I always question the effectiveness of such propaganda attempts. Investing in education is the best antidote in my opinion, state level blocking of services just opens a few cans of worms.
To make TikTok unpopular more quickly, governments should probably mandate that parents make an account too.
- torginus 2y agoDo we know what comes after Tiktok?
- Loughla 2y agoNo, the teens/college kids are still all over tiktok. It's not dying yet

- hypeatei 2y ago> mandate that parents make an account too. Guarantee higher monthly active users and the chance they get addicted too. Nice. I don't know why everyone thinks that: 1) parents are infallible 2) the problem is individuals/families and not the thing itself (infinite scroll feeds)
- raxxorraxor 2y agoIt was a joke suggesting that young people tend to think a platform becomes less cool if their parents are on it too. Not that parents can stalk the online life of their kids or other things that actually do make them uncool.
