Universal Music says that it will pull its song catalog from TikTok tomorrow at midnight, as the companies are unable to reach a deal on rights. Huge implications. (twitter.com)

Good, Tiktok has tiktokified enough brains by now.

Let the brains restore and get used to longer form content.

swipes through Lemmy shitposts for the next three hours as my last two brain cells cry out in pain

I know, i know...getting rid of tiktok isn't going to rid us of the consequences.

But TikTok definitely seemed to be a whole step on the ladder, so it should have some result i would think.

In a perfect world the internet would become just a tool instead of a species wide addiction.

Maybe the tool is the addiction. Or maybe I'm just addicted to tools.
