It’s not even really a harsh truth. It’s just a hot take from someone who only has the most surface level understanding of why people like TikTok.

It’s legitimately the best social network around right now. The content is so freaking good, raw, silly, and spans all walks of life. Whatever they did with the algo makes it extremely high-signal for me and my friends who are on it. I get really high quality content for exactly my niche interests without ever having to spend time searching for it.
