Why is TikTok seen as privacy invading and bad, but Facebook is fine?

I’m not here to claim that Tiktok is completely harmless, or that it’s even a good site. I’m sure they absolutely do collect as much personal information as they can, and I’m sure they give it to the Chinese government whenever they ask. But I don’t understand how Meta and Facebook are meant to be any better? There’s...

How does ripping a CD/DVD work exactly? Is it similar to copying or does it leave the CD/DVD unusable?

How to see CMUS logs / get info for bug reports

Sometimes my CMUS will randomly stop playing a track or it won’t play the next track until I manually go in and hit c (for resume) or otherwise initiate playback.
