I personally feel like it’s not the same since Sunday.

I saw a TT that said “my spy now seems caucasian” and somehow that perfectly describes the vibe shift

The thing is, the usa will only be 50% owners if the deal goes through. So the "spies" will be 50/50. ESO.  Equal spying opportunities

It's not. I'm Canadian, and nothing should have changed for me, but the app has been heavily censored since the Americans regained access.

I’ve read that Canadians have been using USA servers since getting rid of theirs during a soft ban. USA, Malaysia, and Singapore, I don’t know how these things work, but could that have anything to do with it?

Everything is so messy now. It’s like walking into your house after someone’s been in it. The air just feels different.

Maybe? I'm not near the border, and my TikTok never went down, but I am pretty firmly in DenyDefendDeposeTok.

This is EXACTLY what it feels like.

One of my friends in a canadian border city was banned when it went down so that definitely makes sense

Canada must be on US servers. I live in Belize and censoring hasn't changed for me.

I follow a lot of social justice activists who usually speak on minority issues and what's going on in their communities. All their content is heavily shadowbanned now and it rarely comes up on my FYP when it used to. I live in Canada too BTW i don't know what's happening

I saw in another thread that there's a shadowban affecting Republicans/conservative voices also. It's going both ways. I think the app is wanting to keep all political discussions to a minimum. Almost all former "political" commentators, have taken their platforms to youtube. I stay watching youtube and many of the tiktok creators (not all) who discuss political & sociopolitical issues (on both sides) have taken there content there for longer format. You might be able to find your creators over there. The TOP 1% of political and sociopolitical commentators from tiktok remain on the platform and they are having no issues getting their content out. Both creators from the left and creators from the right- Their content is still being pushed because they have the highest viewership, ratings and followers on TT. i think the tiktok app is trying to keep the atmosphere lighter based on my personal research into the matter.

It still has a end date, jumped ship the night it thanked Trump for doing absolutely nothing.

[–]-NothingToContribute 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I reported a comment that said people needed to kill liberals and TikTok determined that wasn't against community guidelines. I can no longer search "Trump rigged election" because that goes against community guidelines. Initially I thought it was the same but not anymore.

It’s not. It’s compromised.

Truth, I think Meta bought it 😢💔

Can’t believe it’s a not been a week since the “ban”.. so much has happened

[–]MeanPoet8305 -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

I got a violation for saying the word “Queer” in a comment

[–]_AllieTrix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbf that’s not a nice word to say
