TikTok quickly adapts to show you videos that you're interested in. There's all sorts of content on TikTok. There's a lot of dancing videos in the same way that there are a lot of dancing videos on YouTube. TikTok seems like a next generation YouTube though. What it adds, in addition to an easy and addictive way to watch, is a remix culture empowered by the ease of creating new videos. Dancing is a fine example. When someone creates a new dance other TikTokers try it out or put their own twist on it. I think highly of TikTok. It's creative. The algorithm powering the feed is compelling. I personally uninstalled it because I'd get caught up using it and spend more time than I wanted on the app - but it's doing a lot right.

> TikTok quickly adapts to show you videos that you're interested in. I've read this and they must have some really brilliant people working there because they are able to confidently stream you whatever is next that keeps you hooked. There's no home page for you to pick and choose. You're just getting one dopamine hit to the brain right after the other. > TikTok seems like a next generation YouTube though. YouTube seems to incentivize longer content which seems to be the wrong thing to do. I can watch a short TikTok video and feel that I actually learned something without the time commitment.
