Ton of down reports this morning for TikTok: https://downdetector.com/status/tiktok/

My guess is they were separating US vs. global users because of the new ownership structure and something got messed up

Or Trump could have asked new ownership (led by his close friend Larry Ellison) to temporarily slow down or freeze accounts sharing about Minneapolis

Some 10-20K creator accounts that I know personally are having the same issues described here, as is my smaller account with ~2K: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DT8SY2lDiJ3/?igsh=NGE3YzlraGZjMTFw

I've been moving away from Big Tech platforms for a while

But I think we'll continue to see more people leave them as the Trump regime leans on people in both obviously visible and hidden ways

Mastodon isn't a video platform per se but anything we can do to welcome / educate people on how to use the various apps/platforms of the #fediverse I believe we should

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://federate.social/users/joecardillo/statuses/115957676156393448 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
