Why has TikTok got to be the carcinisation of websites. YouTube is TikTok, Instagram is TikTok, fucking porn websites are TikTok. Soon you’ll be looking up a solution to a video game puzzle and the website will be a 9:16 video of text-to-speech reading out 8 paragraphs of what should’ve be text.

My prediction is we will be so tired of all of these sites that we will end back at lots of static sites

My fear is people will get tired but will resign to it anyway.

I try to be optimistic about things even if it’s totally unrealistic because if I was realistic about the future I’d not want to live in it anymore.

One of my favorite memes is an extension of what you’re describing.
A Mario streamer simpleflips will throw up Subway Surfers in extra screen real estate. Just keep adding more junk as time goes on.
It’s funny as a gimmick. It’s sad that our actual reality does this though.

imo, tiktok is a nesscary evil to reach a demographic that may not otherwise use their other media.
From the looks of the comments, they also seem to avoid the facebook and HYS crazies.
RSPB have leaned into it, and run a very silly channel with Bird Of The Week.
