Sorry to vent, but... I can't even tell you how much I hate the Tik Tok crowd lately!
They keep ruining everything on the Internet!
For example:
They recently wiped out and took down the best source of free textbooks on the Internet by blabbing about it, and now they took down GPT3.
All (and this is the key point) without ever giving anything of true substance or value back to the Internet.
In short: seriously: nothing good seems to ever come out from Tik Tok crowd! They're not smart. They don't create/contribute truly to Internet value/culture.
They're becoming like a plague of mindless consuming eating parasites unleashed upon the rest of us, ruining all the best kept secrets/nooks of the Internet.
Ok... ok... My old person venting is over... for now!
Sorry about that.
I guess... It's just that I've been on the Internet since the late 1970's with Unix systems and BBS systems, and never-ever since that time...
Have I seen a crowd like Tik Tok that just really seriously ruins things for the rest of us, constantly, and just obnoxiously blast out loud and announce to the whole world our important secrets.
And then those secrets just get immediately shut down.
That's all their antics accomplish.
