Arguably not. Especially if you like watching things for longer than a minute and without the most cringy dancing imaginable.

It’s also a known adhd black hole and misinformation haven.

It's based on an algorithm. The guy that like gaming and tech isn't gonna see people doing cringe dances

That is what amuses me about TikTok haters when they say it is full of X! Guess why buddy? You have been watching X.

Even just going to a certain page to block it will cause me to see that type of TTs for a bit until I search and watch something else.

It’s called a subscription feed that’s chronological and not letting whatever algorithm is analyzing you to sell off your data dictate what you watch.

I don’t enjoy scrolling a stupid algorithm that’s designed to rot away attention spans, all while harvesting as much data about you as possible to sell off.

I enjoy curating my content and getting a feed of nothing but my subscriptions in chronological order. That’s apparently too fucking difficult or not “engaging” enough to make people addicted to scrolling.
