Which do you prefer? TikTok or YouTube? Personally I’m sticking with YouTube for now but this was a fun experiment.

Thanks for this. I had heard of TikTok. Now that I know what it is, I know I don't need it.

tik tok is a serious low for humanity as an evolving species...

[PaulYoungs]

Great video for someone like me (shortly turning 60 years old) who just simply wants to know what TikTok is all about.

You Know Your Old When You Watch Video About Social Media App...🤭

I’m a 31 year old teacher who grew up on VHS and CD’s. I found out about Tiktok last year because whenever I took my students out to the playground, they’d put their phones next to a fence and start dancing in front of them. I feel like a geezer right now.

I’ve purposefully stayed away from TikTok, never wanting to even be apart of it. It just looks like a damaging, demoralising, time waster. I’ve just disabled my Facebook due to wasting time, with only Instagram left. Purely for somewhere to post my travel photos. Guess I’m officially old now 😂 But at least I can look up from my phone, read a book, and travel the world around me.

Thanks for finally satisfying my curiosity as to what all the hype about this app is.
Know I know that is truly the most ridiculous and pointless thing I've ever heard of.
And actually I would pay to keep it OFF my phone.

Hey ! I have a good use for your phone, BUY A BOOK TO READ, OR AN AUDIBLE BOOK TO LISTEN TO.
Actually, learn something. Novel idea ?

[juliahamilton]

Can someone please answer this.. What is this need to seek out adoration from strangers ? Im asking this genuinely

Imagine....this generation will soon run the world😣😖💀

[tabbycats]

No thanks. I'll go back to watching parrots talk on YouTube. :-]

[katflorida]

This app is amazing. I post every day and I feel love and appreciated when someone watches it. It makes me feel like I am something special. When in reality I'm a 50 year old alcoholic who's never had a girlfriend.

When I was 5 years old I thought the future would include interstellar travel and flying cars. Instead, all we get is Tiktok.

[davidwhite]

The difference is that people watching your YouTube videos are more likely to take the content in, whereas people on TikTok are probably just browsing through.

It never ceases to amaze me the number of ways younger people find to waste their time.

An Intelligent, articulate and clear explanation. Thank you 👍

[glennsmith]

Typical of this generation-Look at me everybody-look at me for my so called fifteen seconds of fame. Worthless.

[tlskyward]

Of what value is having a following of any size with a 15 second attention span? Are they mailing you money? Maybe I'm just old and don't get it, but it seems pointless.
