    Well, TikTok can’t get any worse, right?

      If this was a cartoon, now would be the time it starts raining on you while viewing TikTok.

        I tried TikTok some time ago and got bored with it.

        I’m the type that prefers long form content. I watch 20-240 minute videos on YouTube,

        I never got into Vines or the Vines/TikTok clone thing YouTube is doing either.

        So most of the crap I see from TikTok is here, on Reddit and Mastodon.

        And normally only the most entertaining crap from a platform gets to other platforms and I’m not impressed by what I’ve seen, at all.

          You’re just not the target audience. Likely too old.

            When I worked in a factory, all the old country maintenance guys and techs were on tik Tok during their breaks.
