It’s very clear that TikTok causes brain rot:
- hours upon hours of scrolling;
- damaged attention spans;
- boring lip sync “memes”;
- whatever the fuck my little brother is watching;
- KKKringy song over equally KKKringe footage;
- TWs for almost literally anything. I’ve seen [TW: Aesthetic];
- iPad kids
You know? This applies to YT shorts. Now my attention span is so short I can’t even read theory for 5 minutes without thinking “What’s on TikTok?”
Let’s not even forget the KKKringe-ass use of 733tspeak, wtf man.
If I ever have kids, I’d waste my entire bank account just to stop them from getting in this hellhole of a site.
I did have the app for about a month until I rage-deleted it after realizing I was wasting a ton of time every morning scrolling.
I highly recommend not installing it, and doing literally anything else. Like all parasocial media apps, the entire point of it is to keep you on it and seeing ads for as long as possible.
Even if there are some good conent creators on there, you’re better off learning from books rather than 2nd hand 30 second clips.
Definitely.
