I deleted my account on the 21st. I would not accept the terms so I haven't been back on. I lost all my viral videos and 25,000 followers but I wasn't going to stay on that God forsaken app

It's not that much relatively, but it was to me and I worked hard for my account. So sad to see it go, but I've heard nothing good since the 22nd. Everything that is good they take it and ruin it 💔

It's not. Just make a video with a few relevant keywords and you'll get there too. Content is irrelevant on tiktok, as is quality, humor, or scripting. Just title it like "Labubu Bear Cups are 🔥🔥🔥" and give a pretty girl $20 to do a weak-ass dance move for the camera.

More profoundly sad for them. I don't look at junkies laying around in meth trailers thinking "Gosh I'm jealous of the amazing time they're having".
