TikTok's meteoric rise has been because it's so easy to share the content you like, including exporting content.

You can easily download a video and re-host it on another platform. You can send a link to a friend and they don't need to install the app to view it.

TikTok is proving that walled gardens are counterproductive and that if you want your app to go viral, it should be easy to export and share across any platform.

Are they though? Are they making enough money to be profitable? Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, reddit. They all used to be just as easy to share outside the walled garden at one point.

It's a constant push/pull of vitality vs profit it seems.

I thought it was decided by the tech-sphere that TikTok was basically a bulk information-gathering operation for the CCP.
