Tried using this garbage for the first time ever and it was legit awful, is it intentionally designed to be terrible for browsing content or something, how do people use this garbage

The fact that everyone self-censors themselves, and that the platform's posting style has spread to all corners of the Internet--/wsg/ in particular--pisses me off, rationally so.
Based off the videos I've seen against my will, I don't like how everyone is overly expressive and le quirky. China must be punished for unleashing this cancer upon the world.

At first it's all random garbage, over time it knows more about what you like and don't like to keep you constantly engaged
My advice is to uninstall it while it still sucks, this is like you coughing your lungs out after trying smoking for the first time and trying to tough it out and smoke even more instead of listen to your body while you're not yet addicted

It used to be alight before they enshitified.
60% of it is ads.
20% of it is content that it's impossible to say that you're not interested in, they the fruit drama shit they keep forcing on you.
10% is actual content you care about.

This.
I don't even use it, never have, but this is how it is.
I think the best thing you can do is search for tags but I have never in years of occasionally being linked tiktok shit ever found a single channel worth bookmarking or remembering.
This is a fundamental problem with what is designed to be "an app" vs an actual website or platform. They're monetizing retards who are addicted to pulling their phones out of their pockets to swipe on shit as they walk down streets, the agenda is not to provide anything of value.
TikTok is at best a cheap drug for mentally ill children and Disney adults and at worst CCP spyware and a botnet and form of digital warfare.

TV wasn't retards reacting to fake news with nigger music blaring in the background and 17 pajeet faces overlaid into the corners with sound effects mixed inbetween words.
Maybe it is today, but it wasn't 30 years ago.

you must just be retarded. I have mine showing me nothing but ultra hot skinny 20 yo models, kittens, conspiracy nuts and some indie music. and also if any anti-israel content slips through the filters, it shows me that :)

yeah of course you use it first time it doesn't know shit about you just where you live so it's throwing shit at the wall looking for what sticks
keep using it and it'll dial in on you hard
it's not for user guided browsing it doesn't care about your subscriptions followers any of that shit just scroll and watch

proved your point btw
And no, TikTok has a really good algo, you just need to use it for a couple minutes to get ""decent"" videos and after a couple days you have a good FY page. Nigga

you continue scrolling, again and again expecting something to change. it slowly and gradually adjusts itself in a manner such that it recommends you certain content which you may or may not like but will keep on you on there regardless. a slot machine for dopamine. it increases cognitive fatigue and can exacerbate depressive symptoms in individuals as a result of nervous system dysregulation.
it impairs working memory by constantly context switching from one video to another recursively, where the videos are typically short form. the brain constantly and dynamically rewires itself in a manner that is described as being "plastic". in order to adapt to this content you'll have to get used to having short form content and will adapt to have a shorter attention span, (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebbian_theory) it "fragments" individuals memories, making them find it harder to maintain deep focus.

I'm almost 30 but I'm in the same boat. I guess it's just because I'm just so used to watching long form content on YouTube that short form just doesn't do it for me. Guess that's why I never truly never enjoyed Vine all that much when it was this new big thing at the time. Difference is just that I don't see a bunch of retarded zoomer whores making themselves look even dumber than they actually are on the internet.

somewhere around Dec maybe of one year (around 2024-2022 iirc) for about a day or two, when allegedly their staff went on leave there was just straight up porn on there. i vividly remember opening the app and just seeing a fucking hentai slideshow. such incidents happened a few times.
idk too much abt porn on tiktok since i never was on that side of tiktok + i quit using it right before my sophomore year. there's groups in there that i know you (probably) might loathe over there but i'm under the assumption that there's pedos here. there have always been degen groups there afaik.
plenty of cute wamen here and there, you could find softcore/cropped stuff pretty easily from what i'm seeing. it's about how you interact with it and how the algorithm reacts. searching up stuff manually or interacting with specific users, etc.
