What do you mean about tiktok here? I've not noticed machine-translated tiktok being a thing.

I mean the "average tiktok user" who just mindless consumes content and is very uncritical about what shows up in their timeline

(this is more a user persona rather than meaning an actual tiktok user but it seems that's the way Reddit wants to go)

The creepy algo of TikTok is giving me way better content than Reddit. It actually caters to my interests, not ragebait. I guess the bar to beat reddit is not high in the end and mindlessly scrolling TikTok is a problem.
