I’ve noticed that any trend or fad that I find out about months later originates on TikTok. I have no interest in using the app for a variety of reasons, but if it’s something that might actually improve how I live then I might get FOMO.

    Most trends show up on Tiktok; very few originate there. Compared to the volume of content that never trends, the stuff that does is a tiny subset of the total.

    The people that are considered “influencers” tend to have Tiktok accounts and find out about new trends there and amplify them.

    Personally, that’s why I’ve avoided Tiktok.
