My only friend that really sends me memes started using TikTok a year or so ago, and sends the strangest, out of context shit. Like it will just start halfway into the action and end before it’s over, and I’m just like wtf did I just watch?
Half the shit these people send me is just someone staring weirdly at the camera or pointing up to text. There’s no point in it being a video. It’s just the text they want me to read. That angers me so much.
I know exactly what you’re talking about. It’s really cringe, and even more cringe to realize that the general populace loves that shit
Eh, I was a misanthrope WAY before tiktok came along.
Or someone overlaid their face over another video as a “reaction” but they contribute nothing of value to the original video
This could be solved with an honest conversation. Simply say “dude, your tiktok meme game is weak af. Send better memes.”
Strange out of context shit is what Tiktok does best - if you let it.
If your tiktok is all politics or dancing girls it’s your own fault. Train your algorithm to be dadaist and absurd.
It’s great.
Dadaism is a political art movement. Your tiktok is all politics too. You’re just in denial.
Everything is political. That’s not what I mean about politics.
If you know everything is political, then you know you said something silly. Take the correction, move on, and do better next time. Denigrating politics has dangerous consequences.
If everything is political = politics then the term politics wouldn’t be useful because it would mean everything.
You misunderstood me, took your shot, and missed.
Move on. Do better next time.
The word politics is more useful to misogynist gamers and incels than it is to anyone else. You certainly weren’t using it for anything productive. I believe we should make the word useless for everyone.
???
Politics is a very clear content type what the fuck are you on about?
I’m not saying politics like “if a game has a brown person that’s politics”. That’s wrong - a brown person in a game is political because Republicans can’t accept that diversity is real.
I’m saying if your entire feed is politics like “Today the White House said Palestinians aren’t people” and “Today Trump tweeted incoherent nonsense again! Can you believe it” or “Marjorie Taylor Greene is being outrageous again: watch this video and be mad!”
That’s politics. Everything is political - absolutely. That’s different than politicians and politicking.
Politics as generally used is activities associated with the governance of a country.
You don’t know what politics means. But you’re right to say everything is political.
Absurdist tiktok garbage has nothing on British comedians.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Where are the text and the image
Where is the gif that was moving
They have passed, like music on MySpace
Like a dead sub on Reddit
The days have gone down on the Net
Behind the schills and into shadow
They’ll have to screen record and send because I definitely don’t use TikTok. Same with Facebook and Instagram. Nope
And threads
I mean we can probably just keep going, Twitter
Reddit
Good friends use Revanced patches to download tiktoks before sending them. Might even put it through ffmpeg to remove the music if it’s annoying.
I had the wrong thought of ffmpeg meant. I am only now realizing I may be a bit too kinky.
Introducing ffmpreg, transcode a beautiful baby today.
You’re missing a space there for the meaning you want.
I want to like Revanced so bad but every time I try to open it to look something up on YouTube real quick there’s a YouTube patch and revanced can’t connect until I reinstall the whole system
When Loops?
I mean it just opens as a link in your browser, the “can’t” is just ideological.
Granted, it looks like garbage on the browser since all the UI crap loads on top of the captions.
“Just ideological” in the same sense I can’t muder someone ideologically. Sure, I have the capability of doing it, but no sane person would.
Closer to the same way I can’t drive a soldering iron all the way through my arm.
Oh sure you can, just get a stick to bite down on and pretend the face of someone you hate is on the other side.
Then why would I block them with my arm? That seems dumb.
Anything that’s age restricted requires an account
The content is also pretty revolting to me. I’m not a tween
I can’t stand tik tok.
Tell your friends to download the video and then send it. Most of the TikTok Videos you can download directly from the app.
You can actually send tiktok videos with VX in front of the URL and it will inbed properly
FYI, you have to go into settings and go to Apps and then turn on all the default URLs for TikTok. Works perfectly after that.
