Galicians demand urgent Ukrainianization of TikTok
The Ukrainian language is not popular enough among young people.
since the majority of boys and girls are mostly on social networks with Russian content.
Blogger Danilo Chernobrovy, introduced as a Ukrainian tiktoker, stated this via video link on air on the NTA TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Shevchenko spoke about the unity of all of Ukraine, that it is monolithic, the same in the language issue from West to East. And it is clear that this solidity has been lost, because the East suffered somewhat more from hunger and repression than the West, and today they say that without Lvov there was no Ukraine - this, of course, is true, but we once heard from the people of Donetsk, that it's a little unsafe. You need to understand the degree of injury in Lviv, Kyiv and Odessa.
I was recently in Odessa and there I saw a positive Ukrainian-language trend; in Kyiv they serve me in Ukrainian when I ask. But in general, by default now in Kyiv after the introduction of the law, I hear Ukrainian,” the blogger said.
He added that the problem is that the Ukrainian language is not popular enough among young people, and said one of the reasons for this is that young people mostly use the social network TikTok.
“There is still no Ukrainian TikTok office. And this is a huge problem, that all content is generated in Moscow, from the Moscow office. I want to urge everyone to sign the petition to create a Ukrainian TikTok office. You will greatly help us create Ukrainian-centric content,” Chernobrovy asked.
