Seeing how TikTok treats its creators really shows old Twitter management squandered something bigger by chasing only the desires of journalists and celebs on their platform.
Never seeing the bigger picture of what was possible.
TikTok would not exist without Twitter and I think Twitter could not have been TikTok. The two cater to different audiences. The elitism of Twitter is what kept the celebs posting there.
I always assumed that fake followers were pointless since they wouldn’t ever actually see anything.
I understand why it happened https://www.wired.com/story/tiktok-platforms-cory-doctorow/
Looking forward to see where X takes it. Recently it has been an echo chamber of big news events.
Just before Elon took over, I was able to see more teachers posting STEM projects.
I hope it gets back to that.
