Only use it via browser and wasn’t even aware of such feature nor do I care. These short videos are a rabbit hole I don’t want to explore because there’s no coming back
I’ve used them several times. Every time I get 3-4 videos deep and get pissed off because it lacks basic functionality, there’s zero curation so it’s just a stream of shit, the content is shit because they try to cram it into a vertical video, a format that makes zero sense, and I come away from every video thinking “WTF did I just watch?”
Seriously this segment of entertainment truly befuddles me.
I don’t use TikTok but my understanding is that their algorithms are actually pretty good and the more you watch videos the better it gets at recommending them. The first ones it recommends are by definition going to be generic since it doesn’t yet know what you’re into and is just probing around.

yeah I downloaded tiktok to see what the deal was
I am immediately bombarded with some stupid auto play video I didn’t ask for, so I swipe it away
which just sends me another stupid video in an endless stream of garbage
I’ll never understand this type of social media, it truly felt like idiocracy
