View submission: Anyone else not ever use TikTok whatsoever?
It's not different than Reddit, pick your interests and you will see stuff about that.

That nuch is true, although the content form and delivery is drastically different. Reddit is by and large text-based or images, whereas Tiktok is shorts.
I get it from OP. Shorts/reels usually fail to capture my interest as well. I prefer text posts or longer form videos

For me, Reddit is closer to the old style forums. I'm not arguing that Reddit isn't toxic, but I could barely open TikTok because it just bombarded me with noise.

And basically every other social platform. I don't know why non-TT users are so vocal about their "superiority" of not using it or trying but finding it "not for them". It's fine if your interests don't have any content on a platform, but for platforms like Reddit, TT, Insta, etc. I find it hard to believe that's really ever the case - they just don't try.

Yeah, I actually like tiktok ~~and am sad to see it go~~. It was cool seeing how artists experimented with that platform. I followed a lot of surreal artists on that platform. Though it sounds like it won't be gone for too long
Welp looks like it's already in the process of coming back

It is wildy different. Reddit forces you to read and comprehend. TikTok just forces you to scroll for the next little dopamine hit.
