TikTok is garbage and I don’t care how much my mate tries to get me to join, every time he sends me a link to some portrait mode video I cringe.
Everyone is a “content creator” nowadays. Which just makes the majority of said content complete shit.
If it makes you feel any better, I spent 4 minutes in my browser debug tools, deleting the mandatory login trash overlay to see a TikTok video a friend sent me. I was immediately disappointed with all of it and, while I was vindicated in my choice to not log in, I learned my lesson.
In my humble opinion of course
It's democracy, the audience is making 'every' creator famous
