    TikTok is bad for your brain, I do not recommend using

    not even getting into who controls it and how much soft censorship is done there, it’s still bad for society

      I too recommend against it. I had it for about a month, and it was a giant time waster. Its one of those apps you feel really liberated after deleting.

      As always, even if you are trying to use it to learn things, you can’t and shouldn’t distill theory down to tweets or short vids. There is no substitute for doing the reading.

        The format really makes independent and through thinking impossible.

        The short format incentivizes heavy reliance on emotional appeals to get you fired up without actually giving an understanding of what things could be done to address the issue, and even when it’s a personal emotional thing it can’t really convey any emotional depth.
