Does the example gif look like content people would want to see? I don't really know what TikTok is like but that looks like unremarkable strangers singing in an unremarkable context.
- m-p-3 6y agoProbably made as an example by someone that isn't used to create that kind of viral stuff.
- GrantZvolsky 6y agoTo me it signals that it's a platform for the everyday user rather than a small set of pixel-perfect influencers.
- klmadfejno 6y agoDoes that appeal to anyone? I got the impression TikTok was all about awesome sensational feeling stuff. This platform sounds like the opposite, which is a weird take I would think.

- nicoburns 6y agoI don't use TikTok, but I spent an evening last week sitting with someone who was using it. If they're usage is at all typical, then it was mostly "normal" people doing weird / funny things.
- newen 6y agoThe thing about TikTok is it’s a very different experience for different people due to its recommendation algorithm.
- chrismorgan 6y agoDefinitely not. I never want to see a >6MB GIF. (Yeah, Shorts won’t be using a GIF, but I must grumble about news articles using GIFs when they’re a stupidly bad way of representing a video. I honestly have no idea why any reputable news organisation would ever use GIFs like this.)
- dingaling 6y agoMainly because animated GIFs bypass autoplay restrictions
