I like it because it's the leftest of the major social media platforms by far. I started making short videos on youtube and my friend told me to cross-post them all on tiktok just for the hell of it, and only the tiktok ever really took off. I can't seem to get youtube to reliably get my videos in front of people who want to see them, but it's pretty easy to do so on tiktok.

Like on tiktok I'll get 20k, 100k, or even a million views and the comments are like trans zoomers saying lmao and go off,

Same video on youtube and it gets 10, 100, 1000 views and 2 comments, one comment is trying to argue with the video and the other is like "asdfgjgkj"

Yeah, Tiktok is one of the reasons I wish I was born later. I was a bit of a creative and the technology is even better and more accessible these days. Now I'm older and maybe have the time to upload a song once a month onto Youtube.
