If so, good riddance. The good point of TikTok is that the videos appear genuine and wholesome. Not the hyper-optimized for monetization crap YouTube Shorts show you. I much prefer the videos with kids goofing around on icy streets over the American narrator telling me some bs about some great baseball player.
I think charming/wholesome videos are nicer than ragebait/hustle culture videos, even if both have been just as ruthlessly optimised. Optimisation isn't the problem.
