Has anyone else experienced way more ragebaiting content on their fyp lately?

I've noticed in the last six months I'm in way more tik tok arguments than I used to be, I feel like my tik tok feed used to be way more wholesome in the five years prior that I've had it and now it feels like the tik tok algorithm is intentionally pushing my buttons for more engagement and screen time. It makes sense to me that they would do that, because you'll end up using the app more to comment back and forth, especially if you have notifications on, where as if you just get cat videos you're just going to watch it and scroll or leave the app. I hit "not interested" on ragebait and like and save wholesome stuff like cat videos when I see them, but it still overwhelmingly feeds me obvious ragebait. I don't have this issue on any other social media. Anyone else have this problem?

Stop engaging with TikTok’s that make you angry, it’ll fuck with your algorithm. This happened to me after the election. I had to seeking out a bunch of happy, funny, motivational videos to fix it. Don’t engage with anything that riles you up.

'Moderation' there blows chunks.

Not exactly. The only thing that inrages me is how there’s channels that posts incomplete stories
