ok guys, its bad but its not what youre describing lol. yall are being a bit too much. its not even mostly dancing vids, the dancing vids are just what the algorithm gives you when you open a new account. you only keep getting them if you interact with them. frankly i think tictok is bad for the OPPOSITE reason, it give you such a targeted experience pushes you into these toxic pipelines. if it were all dumb dancing and fluff it wouldn't be so dangerous.
My wife's hooked on Tiktok and what she gets on it is very different from the default experience. It is as you say: insidiously targeting particularly interests to be as habit forming as possible.
