the tiktok exodus is widely known! for those of you who don't know, i am in high school. i can't count with my hands how many people have talked about it, and that's just in the two classes i had yesterday (exam week, yay). i've already gotten 2 people to download it. they both made accounts and use it now! it's broken the niche internet thing into the real world, at the very least for young people.

on the app front, lots of americans are posting things like "we've been lied to, china isn't that bad!" i've come across so many americans learning about chinese culture and responding positively to patriotic or socialist posts from chinese netizens. it's insane, i'm really amazed at how, for at least a good chunk of americans, china is becoming less demonized.

Yeah that makes sense. Ill get a lot of accounts just with normal hobbies or cooking that get like 5k-10k likes. Just a dude and his garden or a candy maker, shit like that. Im honestly planning to spend a bit tomorrow scrolling it since i usually am hitting tiktok multiple times a day. Fuck reels
