I want to follow some people on tiktok, for the content they put out. I am, however, a somewhat privacy-minded person. Any suggestion on how to make TikTok less privacy-invasive? Some DNS app?
I am on Android, not rooted.
Don’t install an app you don’t trust. There’s no private way to do it.
TikTok lets you view people via the web browser, just bookmark them, and check up on them periodically. I don’t know if you could get an RSS feed for them, might be possible.
I saw this project https://github.com/pablouser1/ProxiTok
Haven’t been able to selfhost it (not sure what I’m doing wrong yet), but the public instances are working fine.
Also it looks like you can get an RSS feed

So to the original posters question, there’s no need to install the app, just an RSS reader.
I just checked, TikTok has a progressive web app! You can just install the progressive web app, and keep all of the privacy provisions of your browser. So I think that’s the good middle ground here
