I was surprised most by the general publics ignorance regarding possible work arounds. Nobody I spoke to on large Tik Tok lives believed it was even possible to download and install apps from somewhere other than the Play Store. Apple users believed their ability to install apps was identical to Android users

In the future I think the government can force the public to do things simply because the public is unaware of the options they have.

The good news is Rednote seems to be a potential replacement, which is also Chinese owned.
