Wow. That is a giant number. The change made was not good.
If previously there we 1'000 uninstalls per day, not there are 1'500. Relative numbers like that are useless.
If they're "up 150%" then it's now 2500.
Correct, but I did not specify the % so I am save :3
Everyone will probs be back in a few days anyway
wait, so chinese spying is fine, but american spying is not? So why are so many people on faecesbook then?
I remember when tiktok was getting blocked. People got pretty riled up that they didn't have access to their propaganda app anymore.
i deleted Tiktok years ago
thank god people are deleting it (cause i remember it being Toxic and stuff)
Guess what, I never created an account. I just can't get into that quick content, I find it boring after 5 minutes, without substance. I tried both youtube shorts and instagram reels, boring! I prefer long talks or analysis on youtube.
Ok, but what are the counts for uninstalls generally? 150% sounds like a lot, but if it’s only a thousand uninstalls a week then it’s only jumped to 1,500 uninstalls. When there are millions of users, that’s…not very much.
I’m not arguing against progress. I’m just saying they are making it sound like this big exodus when it might be minimal in reality.
