TikTok, The Last Frontier

Upsides: The app allows ppl to find community with likeminded people from all over the world. Allows you to earn your audience, and build your reputation through producing good content frequently. Over all, there is a very positive vibe on TikTok compared to other social media platforms, and the users seem to keep each other in check when it comes to being negative and bullying. It’s more entertaining and many times more informative than tv. It gives you a window into real peoples worlds as well, as opposed to Hollywood scripted scenes and scenarios. There are so many creative people out there freely sharing their art forms, and helping each other out, it’s beautiful to see.

Downside: TikTok needs to build in a better reporting and appeal system. The current system has been weaponized to attack people simply because of opposing views. (I’ve seen people organize mass reporting parties for TikTok on Twitter.) Which isn’t fair to people who are working hard to make good clean content that happens to rub another group the wrong way. It can cause their videos to be removed their accounts to be limited or banned unjustly. Meanwhile very problematic content and malicious predatory behavior seems hard to get under control. I suggest more human discernment, deeper investigations into reports, and possibly repercussions for users who abuse the reporting system.

I love TikTok but..

I love TikTok it’s a really fun app bc so many people are nice but some aren’t, also this new trend saying “interact 4x or else you pet will die.” Or other thing and it’s annoying bc some people get hurt after they skip it and it freaks me out to the point where I might take a break from TikTok. It really annoys me and I take a lot of breaks just because of this new trend it’s not really good. I know you can’t control what people post but at draw it to the point, because imagine getting a new puppy then you scroll on TikTok and it says “Use this sound or your dog will die” and then your puppy dies. That’s going to far and it needs to stop or else I might be taking a very long break. Tysm for reading this TikTok I know this isn’t your fault but please put a stop to it. Ty!! Byeeee

I’m adding on to that 👆👆the same thing is happening it stopped for a year and it’s happening again but what people are saying is getting worse I just saw and someone said “my mom died” and it’s not ok to joke so if you guys could stop this I would appreciate it because I getting tired of it and I love TT but I have had to take so many breaks because of people saying your pet will die are your mom will die or whatever, so please just try to do something because I like using this app but some of the things are saying are just getting out of hand so that’s all for now bye thank you!!
