This is the most confused comment I've ever read. What are you even talking about? What metric did you think that a company whose goal is to make money was going to optimize on? What metric do you think TikTok is optimizing on (hint: it's not "grassroots content" whatever that means)
- ldjkfkdsjnv 4y agoTikTok lets regular people create content, and then shows it to other regular people. As basic as that sounds, FB/Google have all sorts of manipulation behind the scenes that stops that from occurring at the same scale. And so TikTok exploded because people could actually communicate in an organic way through video media.
- jamiequint 4y agoUhhhh.... do you know anything about Douyin? Yet you're convinced that somehow the TikTok feed is not manipulated?
- ldjkfkdsjnv 4y agoI'm a daily user of all platforms and have worked at two FAANGs as an engineer on ML platforms. I know exactly how these things work
- jamiequint 4y agoSo you know how two FAANGs operate and have no idea how ByteDance operates.
