These guys are literally the last people in the world I would trust to regulate themselves responsibily.

Yes yes yes.

I mean, I have as much of a problem with Musk and his insane antics as the next guy, but is TikTok really an improvement in that regard?

Are we at the point where we have to select “the lesser fascist” when contemplating who should have control of our social media?

Yeah, I agree that’s probably how this is going to play out; Ukraine cedes some territory to Russia and is allowed to join NATO, hopefully safeguarding it against further Russian imperialism in the future.

In the meantime, we should of course keep supporting Ukraine as much as we can to give them as strong of a position in these potential future negotiations as possible.

Seems pretty plausible that the compute required for the “good” version was too high for them to sustainably run it for the normies.
