      But then I remember that tik tok reactions can literally be just a guy pointing.

That shit hasn't happened to me since playing games as a kid. I deleted it that very moment. Never redownload it and after some friends who were in their mid to early 20s that I met recently, I then got some insight into current tiktok Instagram snap and what not and am very glad I don't really use any of it really.

      I agree with what your saying if it was dialed down a bit, if that makes sense.

In the end people watch shit, like a person fake laughing and agreeing to a video they didn't make. And it gets millions of views. It's not just Tik Tok.

There's plenty of decent content, particularly in the hobby or niche groups, but the company is determined to push all the popular content, and I was constantly distracted by doomscrolling trash.

    The robotic world of Tik tok (social media)..the wait for it, the reaction on the reaction video and commentary at the end video..the random gaming video over an actual important message video and my fav the pointless pointing videos. This will not fix the silly world of tik toks and reels, but makes me feel better....we are not alone. Thanks Ryan George.

    The part with the video game footage is exceptionally true. I think it's due to the fact that it keeps you stimulated whilst watching the video, therefore increasing watch time. What's ironic is that having to keep the viewer stimulated is due in part to short attention spans; a symptom caused by social media itself.

      I don't feel the same way people point. Think about it. If a waiter shows you the dessert menu on a tray and you want the triple chocolate cake and somebody points at a berry crumble as to what they want, do you change your mind to ordering the berry crumble? That is how weak, undecided minds work, not strong ones. You might want to try a nibble of their dish, but just so you can confirm how dumb they were for ordering it and you can gloat over the superiority of your delish chocolate, and you shake your head no laughing at that first dry, gritty, sour fruity bite, knowing they were a fool for ordering a berry crumble.
