You can go ahead and point out where I mentioned Lemmy in my prior comment. But I will address that now, and of course TikTok is not better than Lemmy.
But what my prior comment was about is that the content from TikTok is unhealthy for the mind. Therefore Lemmy should not host it at all.
I already downvote the porn posts that are just dancing hoes from TikTok. Or anything with that watermark on it. Everyone who cares about mental health and reducing propaganda and misinformation should join me in doing so.
There are a few reasons I can think of that Lemmy is a better platform than ticktock.
ticktock uses an algorithm to drive engagement and keep users on the platform for as long as possible, recommending posts that it thinks the user will like or hate. Lemmy doesn’t do this.
I’ve never actually used ticktock so I’m not sure if it’s possible to block content in the same way but the ability to block users, communities, and entire instances is I think one of Lemmy’s best features.
there are no ads on lemmy.
Now for the content in question, my understanding is that it’s entirely user generated. Just like Lemmy, reddit, YouTube, Etc. It’s not like the Chinese government is making American women film themselves dancing and then forcing them to post it on ticktock. That’s just what that person wanted to make and post and ticktocks algorithm is recommending it.
With that being said, there are potentially useful, funny, or important content that might be uploaded to ticktock by a user, the same way that girl dancing video was. If that happened, wouldn’t make sense to move that content to a platform without many of the down sides of the ticktock platform?

You’re literally insane
