It's addictive because it's fucking hilarious. The amount of glorious micro-comedy I'm getting on the app is off the charts.
Last week I had no idea who Emmanuel the emu was. Now I do, and my life is better for it.
- Avamander 4y agoThe suggestion algorithm is surprisingly fine-grained and stable, that seems to keep people addicted. That's both a positive and a negative, it's also not that easy to end up on the "wrong side of TikTok", with the wrong crowd you don't engage with. Unlike with YouTube and Facebook, I haven't seen close relatives end up in the alt-right/bullshit pipeline. No inane "Elsagate" videos or Fox News.
