tiktok haters are so weird to me. the app shows you what YOU want to see. if you use that for political shit, that’s on you, but let the rest of us laugh at funny videos and enjoy curated content about our hobbies in peace

I downloaded it once to find out what was going on... All I got were a bunch of LGB teen witch videos and didn't see a way to search. Deleted it quickly!

you’re probably trolling but there certainly is a search function and it’s not hard to find. also as you “like” videos and engage with them those kinds of videos will find their way to your for you page over time, so whatever you had on your feed at first was just random. you can also just follow accounts you like and stick to your following tab

Lol, a TikTok user with "hobbies"!?!?!? That's laughable... Are those hobbies like walking miles without ever looking up from your phone? Or, annoying people that are just going about their day, so you can get more views? Or, just mindlessly scrolling the endless feed of stupid videos to get your never-ending fix of dopamine?

To have a "hobbie" you would have to put your f******* phone down for more than 3 seconds. Hobbies...yeah right!

yeah i definitely am not a real person who uses tiktok to watch sports content that is curated for my enjoyment. i couldn’t possibly have a hobby because i watch tiktok. i also annoy people going about their days by watching videos of other people annoying people going about their days by filming videos in their own homes or editing sports clips that were aired on TV. it’s really bothering people to watch these videos and to film them. yes. sure. 🙄

edit: tiktok haters, just say you don’t like change and new social media and move on. there’s TONS of content on the platform that isn’t people annoying others in public. podcast clips, DIY projects, wholesome pet content, tips for people in various jobs/hobbies from other people in the same fields, recipes and cooking videos, and an absurd amount of other things. it’s extremely weird and unhealthy to hive mind for no reason
