Tik Tok: A Personal Reflection

Tik Tok has suddenly become my favorite app during this whole quarantine. It has endless entrainment within its For You Page. I have post my share of Tik Toks, one that has surprisingly went viral, has since been deleted unfortunately with 37 thousand views on the app. I was very upset when the App took down the video, as I had a taste of minuscule fame. I think that it should have been taken down as I did not know the dangers of the cinnamon challenge, before I attempted it. I know that it is strongly influenced by the Chinese government, yet the app itself is so addicting for anyone who downloads it. 

I obviously also engage with my Instagram followers. I do not have a big social media following, but I pride myself on talking to anyone and everyone who takes the time out of their day to comment, that goes the same for all my social media. How I engage with my follower has been through the poll feature of the app. I have used it before, yet I have had more engagement during Covid-19, probably due to people being on their phones much more than before.

I think what I like the most with social media is user engagement. Tik Tok app is very easy for anyone to get involved with. It is actually the only social media that I am good at posting on. My friends from home never enjoy my Instagrams, due to me unphotogenic so I have no good pictures of myself. Tik Tok allows me to take short videos to express myself in a free environment. Some of my friends take the app far too serious than it needs to be. The app is meant to be taken as a joke and not at all seriously.
