    Yeah, I mean whose going to steal popular content off of twitch and youtube, and then post it in a horrible bitrate with the wrong orientation.

    The fuck are they on about? The gaming community is centered around discord and twitch, maybe with YouTube and Reddit in smaller amounts. tiktok’s death wouldn’t even be noticed.

    This reads more like the panic of an addict who thinks they’re about to be cut off and less like a coherent take on the issue.

    In reality, even if this passes the Senate, TikTok will be sold to a US-based holding company. Little will change for the end user. It isn’t going to shut down. And even if it did shut down (which it won’t ), this article really cheapens the meaning of “tragedy.”

    No it won’t. This is 1 of many lemmy gaming related communities. Living proof gaming communities don’t need TikTok to thrive
