      Over 1 billion monthly users, about 25% of the people that use the Internet. So quite a bit more than dances tbh

      There’s a lot on it.

      It’s not just girls in things standing in a hot tub flossing.

      I don’t like the company, I don’t use the product. But it is what Facebook was in 2010.

      Funny skits, science info, almost real time information about congress stock trades and political corruption in the US.

      It’s an algorithm based social media platform. There’s so much on there beside what you see from clips etc. Just like anything else.

      i used to think it was just the dances but then i started dating a girl last year who uses tiktok a lot and there’s actually a lot of interesting content on there. it’s like a different version of youtube. there’s an algorithm… you like cooking? lots of interesting cooking videos. there’s also some interesting political content, mostly leftist from what i gather.
