Good to know … I have honestly kept away from most social media after a stint in Reddit that pushed me here

I have never had a Facebook, insta, Google whatever social, tiktok, etc so I don’t really get what people like there

Yeah I’ve deleted Facebook and affiliated products since 2017.

Google social never made sense to me but even just for content YouTube does a terrible job showing me what I want to see.

Tiktok had honed in on things I found funny or interesting within an hour of picking it up. And I’m not talking mainstream sports or TV type content, I’m talking niche sub communities and creators with less than 1k followers.

Idk how they’re doing it (besides the obvious data collection) but they’ve got a well tuned algo.
