    there are tweaks that can be made. also I’m talking about an individual’s personal feed

    if I open tiktok right now, my feed will differ from yours. because it’s personalized. reddit is a bad example because its not personalized.

    if you’re seeing far right videos on your feed its because you’re engaging with that content. you’re feeding the algorithm.

    don’t engage with that garbage and you won’t see it.

      You think your personalized feed is not manipulated like this either? Or imagine someone new to the platform, he’s gonna immediately get bombarded by propaganda and disinformation, clicks on the videos, and then the personalized feed will feed them more of the same, radicalizing them even further.

      And no, I’m not and I don’t. You’re clearly not getting the topic and why it is a problem.

        i think we are talking about two entirely different things. you’re talking about generalized stuff and I’m talking about a specific person’s feed.

        I’m not talking politics or other stuff. literally just talking a personalized feed. just for entertainment.

        golly. not every single thing has to lead to the end of the world, man.

        chill with the “propaganda and disinformation”. I’m talking cats and anime and video games.
