So is grindr. Most dehumanizing app ever, so manipulative and full of ads.

It does give you sex in return for data, which compared to most apps, is a better return ratio.

It’s not sex in return for data, more like “you get sex, you lose confidence and any sense of self-worth, we will also show you ads every 3 seconds.”

9 times out of 10 that tap or message you just got came from a fucking bot. Grindr is such a shithole app.

I would recommend that you should reflect on how you use the app.

To be more honest:
Tiktok is actually very useful to find
However, it also has huge amounts of
and it’s usage has negative effects on brain such as:

To be objectively honest, all the useful things you listed are and always have been available elsewhere in the internet.

I’d trust Askjeeves to give me more reliable information than TT

Google? Query, then click on the video’s tab. Don’t want to use Google? You can also use Duck duck go, startpage.com, or anything similar using the same steps.

This is cope. TT feeds you the information you don’t need or search for it. If you search you will find better sources for everything. It’s just a big advertisement platform.
Also tf is manifestation footage?

A manifestation (or “manif” for short) is the word for a (political) protest in some languages

How tf is this cope I don’t even use this shit. Just give me the better sources for everything then ? Because I know people who use it and they find things hard to find otherwise. Just because it’s a shit social media doesn’t mean you should lie about what it can do.
Manifestation footage is footage of a manifestation. Quite often people I know who use tiktok talk to me about things going on in other countries that are not talked about in public media

I don’t think its a good source for any of these, because its short videos. You don’t actually look for information there, because searching for specific these specific videos is hard. If you want specific information you gotta read, because text-based info is searchable.
Recipes are on recipe websites, interesting places in local forums, same with rare languages. Tutorials are all over the internet.
Protest are definetly not on the Chinese run social media, unless China wants it to be amplified.
It’s maybe good for memes.
