It's indeed infuriating how these services try to cram TikTok style crap down our throats.

The stupid thing is: they try to get more popular than TikTok. How the hell do they expect to become popular with users that don't want this stuff? I'm not on TikTok, I hate YouTube shorts and Instagram reels. Just allow me to turn that shit off and I'll be a lot happier and use the service more because it's not pushing me away.

How do they think forcing it on unwilling users is in any way beneficial??
