In the process of dechudifying and delibifying what I see online, this was a crucial step. A black non-binary transfem can only take so much.

I can imagine but, the signature style I usually see is people miming and lip syncing for 30 seconds, which is just unappealing to me. I’m used to long format stuff.
Assuming that is all TikTok is about is like assuming Youtube is nothing but reaction videos. Sure, these genres are really popular on their respective platforms, but it’s a small sample of what they have to offer.
I agree. I’m sure there’s some good content out there but, the popularity and ubiquitousness of that particular and my dislike of the short form style both me off. For the short form in particular, it shows it’s limits when people have to stitch their videos together to get their point across.
I’ll concur with others that your impression of the platform isn’t very accurate, but also you have nothing to worry about cause it jumped the shark last year.
The ALG just pushes ads, paid partnerships, and e-commerce at you. Almost all the content remaining is from big established creators 9common to many platforms). The same 5 songs are on every video and new ones stopped showing up.
The few people making good content are great, but I wish they would find a better place to put it (cause it’s good stuff and I want people to find it in a more accessible place)
It’s the algorithmic feed nonsense. At least YouTube lets me look up what I want to see, not roll the dice training an algorithm to not give me skimpily clad teenagers dancing badly, which is apparently the default. I’m here for zoo animals getting enrichment and woodworking content alone
Yeah theres definitely a lot of that on any platform with a userbase that large. I feel like tiktok definitely pushes it to be popular though.
