This is still something I don't understand at all. I see people using TikTok a lot, and it's kinda spooky how they just get sucked into it.
One reason I tried to avoid it was because of the way it brainrot algs your feed. My ex and my bff both tried to get me to use it for a long time and they finall did. I sort of regret it but also the alg does try sometimes to show you your interests. It's shit a lot too.
I can't do the short form stuff, I'll sometimes watch cat or cooking shorts on YouTube. I prefer ridiculously long form content lol
I actually get that. The 15 second videos that have 462 jump cuts stitched together drive me insane.
