Is This The Anti Censorship Social Media App? | The West Report
Social media meant your friends, family, and community. Now there’s rage on tap, AI leaking through the pipes, and invisible rules that decide what you see, what you miss, and what gets quietly buried.
In this West Report video, we look at UpScrolled, a new app that claims to create a feed with visible rules, less manipulation, and less censorship, at a time when TikTok and Meta are facing new allegations of shadow banning, political restriction, and power-leaning streams.
We explain what a “transparent algorithm” actually means, how UpScrolled says its Follow and Explore feeds work, what it claims about AI content, moderation, and monetization, and why the real test is whether any platform can stay clean when money and scale come into play.
TikTok is crashing in the US. Will UpScrolled Make the Algorithm Great Again?
