Scroll past the ones that bore you, or long press and hit "not interested", and the for you page will improve. > conference videos TikTok is for killing time and having fun. If you're learning on TikTok it's by accident. The videos are limited to a minute, ffs. That's why it's fun and it's good that people who take it too seriously are put off by the format and leave. > I had to delete it You can curate the apps allowed to notify you on your phone. For me, my phone makes a noise when someone is calling me (a good old-fashioned phone call) and that is the only notification I allow. If you're deleting apps for that, you're missing out. > young people who have their friends on it You're thinking of snap. Young people don't have their friends on tiktok, they are mostly hoping not to meet people they know on there so they don't get in trouble for how they use it. When a platform captures the leisure of young people, it develops a culture with its own conventions and art. TikTok is the first platform I've been excited by since early Twitter. The fact that old people don't get it is a huge benefit. TikTok doesn't want your boring conference videos.
