They are going to get one when a western tech company copies them to fill the vacuum they left.

When? Instagram/Facebook Reels are already a blatant copy. And YouTube Shorts is trying.

They don't want to compete with tiktok, they want them gone so they win without trying to make their own service better, which they could do, but they don't want to change what likely ends up being a more lucrative algorithm for them if they aren't dealing with competition. You know, American free market economics 🙄
