Americans’ sources of information have declined in quality, and the problem goes beyond any one social media platform.
"Banning an entire app in the US would be a massive attack on the very concept of an open web. And that’s really unfortunate, given that the US used to be the world’s most vocal supporter of the web being kept open and free."
TikTok is heading to its moment of truth in Washington, with Congress on a fast track to approve a bill aimed at forcing the social-media platform’s Chinese parent ByteDance Ltd. to divest its controversial ownership stake.
We're in the early stages of experimenting with a dedicated space for photo and text content with TikTok Notes. Starting today, TikTok Notes is available for download and limited testing in Australia and Canada.
We hope that the TikTok community will use TikTok Notes to continue sharing their moments through photo posts. Whether documenting adventures, expressing creativity, or simply sharing snapshots of one's day, the TikTok Notes experience is designed for those who would like to share and engage through photo content.
Die Studie beschränkt sich auf die Effekte im US-Markt, lassen sich aber auch auf andere Märkte in der Mechanik übertragen.
TikTok is notifying users about a new app called TikTok Notes.
The company announced on Tuesday that it’s expanding its dedicated STEM feed across Europe, starting in the U.K. and Ireland, after first launching it in the U.S. last year.
The STEM feed will begin to automatically appear alongside the “For You” and “Following” feeds for users under the age of 18. Users above the age of 18 can enable the STEM feed via the app’s “content preferences” settings. The feed includes English-speaking content with auto-translate subtitles.
TikTok says that since launching the feed in the U.S. last year, 33% of users have the STEM feed enabled and a third of teens go to the STEM feed every week. The app has seen a 24% growth in STEM-related content in the U.S. since the feed launched. Over the past three years, almost 15 million STEM-related videos have been published on the app globally.
Die AfD ist die größte Partei auf TikTok. Sie hat Einfluss auf die Jungen. Ein Appell an alle, die die Demokratie lieben.
In the last week alone, nearly a dozen other TikTok influencers have posted videos promoting Lemon8 that include a link to download the app. It’s unclear if ByteDance paid them for their posts.
Research from SimilarWeb in July last year found Lemon8 had just 6,360 active daily users.
Apptopia said the app has been growing in recent months, including 19% in March so far, with usage accelerating in the US, but decelerating elsewhere
Senators were reportedly told that TikTok is able to spy on the microphone on users' devices, track keystrokes, and “determine what the users are doing on other apps”, it’s worth asking if lawmakers are happy for American apps to do the same things.
