   I don't get people who actually use shit like tik tok. All the content there is utter garbage. Why watch it? Literary zero value.

     @dushman I'm usually using my phone vertically so it feels more natural to watch videos that way than on YouTube, and the short nature makes it more accessible for people who aren't content creators to post their stuff
     
     I follow a lot of science and art stuff and music stuff

     @dushman pointless question, nobody can answer that concretely, it'll all be speculation along the lines of "its herd mentality"

     @dushman also it's like almost ad free. YouTube forces ads all the time and makes them unskippable a lot, tiktok shows you one when you open it sometimes but you just swipe down and skip it whenever you want, so you don't even really notice it has ads ever which I think is how ads should be done

     Whenever I see some of the things from there I'm left utterly bewildered as to why anyone would consume such content. E.g NPC streamers.

     @eris @dushman I went on rumble.com one time and they had a HOT trending video on the front page, and it was a video of ducklings running toward water, with about 200 views.

     But regardless it doesn't count as an alternative to tiktok since it's horizontal and long form

     That's just a result of laxer rules than YouTube. Also there's even more of that type of content on YouTube itself lol.
