View submission: Anyone else not ever use TikTok whatsoever?
You know the people who feel motion-sick when playing 3D first-person games?
I think for the people who avoid TikTok, it's a similar thing going on — more an issue with how they feel consuming content *formatted and structured as short video clips,* than with the content *of* those clips. It's the medium, not the message.

Thank you! I much prefer reading content vs watching videos forever and I eventually grow tired of reading. I have insta but I really don't hang out on there much each day. I knew people who were scrolling for hours on tiktok, depriving themselves of sleep, and anytime someone tried to get me interested I was just like meh I already have other apps that show me videos I don't need more videos in my life.
