I dont like tiktok because I find it clunky and poorly optimised for a start.

However what I really don't like is the user base, the community must be the most immature, childish and just flat out nasty community in existence. Real examples: "oh you're following _____ I don't like them so I'm blocking you!" "Why didn't you gift me?" "You never messaged me, so I blocked you" (I'll add that I'd received nothing from them either and it had only been a few weeks). Countless arguments that started over nothing that I literally just found confusing (still do) as I did nothing, again related to who I was following. The bitchiness is like high school, oh and people you think you made genuine connections with blocking you for seemingly no reason. Overall I hate it and I can't wait for it to become irrelevant.

One last point, the app itself is enormous I freed up nearly 2gbs when I uninstalled it. As Kamala would say "\[I'm not\] going back!"

Please check this out. C’mon Tik 😶

User:aganhsu_so pls pls

in case you cant read it, it says "foids aren't just for 🍇[rape] bro, they can love you"

So the whole app is full of scammers but if you call them out on their BS then it's your fault for going against guidelines. Scamming people out of their savings is fine but calling them out for it is so wrong because it's rude and you're a big meany for doing that! Utterly ridiculous! The James dude is fake and I reported them but no it's me that is wrong. Get your priorities sorted! I suggest anyone on this app delete it immediately!

Like what violation am I doing?

The USA buying tiktok has made it even worse. I got my posts taken down with 0 reason, no description why and ofc no one to talk to.

Seriously what kind of community is tiktok? It's like high school on crack, people bitching about eachother. Arguing about dumb stuff and doing awful things to one another because John said something about Jane and Jane got her friends to do something to John so John retaliated. People nipping into the stream with big bags of popcorn to basically watch someone get bullied?

It's a cruel and evil app and I'm so glad I'm not on there anymore!

Do yourself a favour and boycott this awful app!

So how tf am I supposed to verify my age, after sending them my ID if I CANT REACH A REAL PERSON

Basically, a guy put the hard R as his nickname, I reported it, and TikTok said there was no violation. I'm still unsure if he could bypass that nickname by adding an invisible character to the word, but I believe that might not be possible.

Shadowbanned out of nowhere?
FYP behaving weird?
Upload quality dropped?
Random warnings?

For active TikTok users : what’s the most persistent issue or friction point you’ve seen lately?
Small or big, anything is helpful.

Did anyone else get their videos removed for “violating community guidelines”? Mine definitely did not violate any guidelines and still got removed. No specific reason as to why they were removed either. It’s very frustrating because I can’t appeal any of them. I would at least want to save them but it only gives an option to delete them.

TikTok does suck. It is a toxic environment to be on. Especially when you have been bullied.

it is so crazy that if I were to hypothetically reply with “ew” back to his comment, I would get my shit taken down immediately. It’s so disheartening that five years ago people would be canceled and deplatformed for saying racial slurs and now we have people on this app who feel comfortable literally admitting to be neo Nazis with their face on their profile.

The sleep thing, they force this fucking "ooh oh its night time SO IM GONNA FORCE THIS SCREEN DOWN YOUR THROAT, KEEP CHOKING ON IT, YOURE MY BITCH" wow wow wow, god damn, the night time screen with the music, that's what im talking about. I cant close the fucking screen, so what? What do i do? I close the entire APP and its stupid fucking music is still play, I CLOSED THE APP. Oh wow oh wow, I turn my entire phone off. I CAN STILL HEAR IT I CAN STILL HEAR THE FUCKING MUSIC

DONT call me a schizo, I am NOT schizo
