You say that, but if you where using tiktok you’d be one of the roughly billion people who didn’t know about the signal a month ago but then recently learned about it. Trust me, Tiktok was the absolutely major force behind this knowledge becoming widespread, and it’s perfectly reasonable that it’s mentioned. Just like Gangnam style coverage mentioned YouTube. It’s not about clicks or some infatuation with the platforms, it’s just objectively the case that these major platforms have an extreme reach and that’s worth including in your coverage. Especially since many readers like yourself don’t understand just how influential the platform has become, because they haven’t known about it for more than a year or so.
