what’s with this curmudgeon type shit? their livelihood is at risk. just because you’re not part of the ecosystem doesn’t mean you need to dismiss a way to make money thats worked for quite a few people.
They’re lice riding on the back of a large and very efficient predator.
Nothing they can do on that platform benefits humankind, though it might funnel some money in the “creators’” direction. They’re no better than the teenagers that run bindles of smack from the trap house to the junkie for a couple of bucks.
They should make a better tiktok: 5 seconds videos, it will be more insightful, and a gift to humanity… Or maybe 1 seconds videos because they will concentrate their talents. But god forbid they find a real job, that would be exhausting.
No, they did not. All I saw was a statement that people making a living on sites like TikTok or YouTube are also part of the entertainment industry. Which is just a fact. Whether you like short form content on these sites or not doesn’t change that fact.
part of the entertainment industry. Which is just a fact
Your facts are yours only, and laughable too. Get a job, something that is the tiniest bit useful. But filling the internet with your inane thoughts is definitely not a job, nor does it belong in a forum dedicated to technology. The mere “fact” that any moron can pretend to have a job by putting 30 seconds videos in the latest fad is disgusting and unworthy of humanity.
Woops, I already spent more time answering your post than those idiots have spent filming themselves spewing what idiotic thoughts came out of their brains. Am I an influencer now?
Making shitty videos is a stupid hobby, not a job.

this is a social media app that creators can make videos on. i think you’re overreacting just a bit, man.
its not the end of the world. people making content that people enjoy on a video app isn’t going to ruin the youth.
relax.

How do you feel about content like this? It’s long form, informative, and hobbyist.
Or this guy who generates customer leads to his interior design business?
You can say the same about the whole entertainment industry then. You just prefer other things than short form, visual content.
I cannot say that a great movie is equivalent to a meme in an animated GIF.
Nobody is saying that. But I will take a great meme over a shitty movie any day.
Well, that other guy was saying this so…

You aren’t making any money from it, so, no.
Like it or not, people make a living doing this.
I know. The tiktok ban may fix that for some time hopefully.
If it pays the bills for those people, what difference does it make? Other than “me no likey”, that is?
