From what I've seen Tiktok is no worse than Instagram, Facebook or Snapchat. If anything there's less toxicity which in itself makes Tiktok better than the rest.

With that said I don't use social media much (like maybe an hour a week? I have neither Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat accounts) and if I had to pick only one it would be Tiktok (even though I don't use it now) except if there were a curated HN page with all the toxicity filtered out (that would be awesome).



It's survival of the fittest. The replacement for Facebook and Instagram must have more frequent dopamine hits and less friction.

TikTok is better at delivering those hits and worse for the human.


The comments on TikTok are just as toxic as Facebook and Instagram. I've also seen misinformation on TikTok as well.
