Hahaha, I knew this comment was coming. Fun fact: TikTok is experimenting with longer videos. I think they’re up to 3min already.

Eventually all these things converge on an identical feature set, I guess.

I never understood why. Look at Snapchat: when it was just 1:1 messages that disappeared people got that. People liked it, used it, tried to get their friends on it, and so-on.

Now it’s instagram, so why not just use instagram?

By moving away from their market differentiator they made themselves replaceable.
