really?

So many videos are just reaction videos, or doing trends which are the same concept (e.g. a dance, or challenge) just by different people. There's so much reptition, lots of creators that keep doing the same shtick because that's what gets them views. But it's so much worse than something like youtube where it's something that has to be condensed into a few seconds so it's all very superficial.

for reposting copies of original content?

There's a significant amount of original content on TikTok, so I'm not sure what you've seen exactly, but you might want to scroll past those to see less of them.

Most of the content I get is original.

The reality is, Facebook is where content goes to die.

How can you possibly know that?

I'm not even saying it isn't, I just think it's basically unknowable.

you can simply look at the blatant content copying which does not attempt to hide it, across these platforms, and for that category see it easily

So is YouTube... Where probably ~80-90% of TikTok content is repurposed from.

This is completely wrong

And that's the reason people use it.

It eats into the consent manufacturing pipeline that the US has carved out and that's the reason they're really worried.

"Military recruitment is down because of TikTok!" No. There are just service members who are showing what it's really like there.
