  I have no idea what she works on ... but surely at least some of Meta's product staff _ought_ to be regularly using TikTok both as consumers and creators, right? How could they attempt to compete without making an effort to understand why TikTok has been eating their lunch?

    There has to be a balance though. I remember hearing (probably a HN comment) that all the UI designers in the Windows team at MS use Macs, which blew my mind, but also explained so much. If you have people working on designing and improving a product who are ultimately not even willing to use it as a their daily driver, you get the kinda of disconnected mess that is that UI in Windows and the sometimes baffling decisions made.

    Understanding it, doesn't mean obviously trying to become an influencer type on it. Did you really watch the video and see someone doing market research?
