- yunnpp 8mo agoThere is a lot of naivete behind the whole idea that some alternative is better because it's open source. You can clearly tell it's a project made by software developers, not by behavioural analysts, psychologists, or really anyone who has talked to another human being in the past 30 days. The only real alternative to TikTok is a big dumpster fire.
