Facebook solved the core problem of real identity on the web. Extending outside colleges was a natural progression (first to workplaces, then to high schools, then publicly).
TikTok solves the problem of short form video creation / entertainment. Will their userbase be interested in creating the same type of content in 4-5 years? I think they'll struggle the same way Snapchat struggles to convince people over 35 to use their app.

It's overwhelmed with millennial/elder millennial and beyond. I don't see this as a problem for them and in fact I think people are jumping over to it in droves.

- BurningFrog 6y agoEveryone is locked up at home with their phone at the moment. So current TikTok trends may be atypical.
- dragonwriter 6y ago> millennial/elder millennia Is this redundant or is the latter the new term for Gen X from the people who believe that the world is divided between Boomers and Millennials, so everyone else must be a “young millenial”, “elder millenial”, or “advanced boomer”?
