On: TikTok owner ByteDance sees its earnings double in 2020

So I installed tik tok for the first time yesterday. I don’t get how it’s supposed to show me things I like. It’s mostly hot girls doing makeup or teens running from the police and stuff. How do I get it to show me things I like? How does it discover my niche interests.

I have the same issue with medium. My coworker talk about how great it is and he learns so much from it. All I see is clcikbait garbage.

If you don't like the video, flick up to move to the video.

Here's your mistake: you're a couple of years late ;-)

How can I find all the good articles from a couple of years ago?

You do so by tapping the heart to like the video. If you want to jump-start it use the discover tab and search for something you like.

Just use it for a few days. It learns from which video you watch, skip, or interact with (comment/like/follow)

I never entered any search term and it figured out I'm into AI, startups, tennis, attack on titan...

I mean it's mostly a kids dancing app, so that's mostly what you get by default.

Follow Tom Silva, Mr Barricade, Soft Pourn, Woodshopdiaries, Scott Hanselman. This will get you a bunch of interesting content. It might not be what you want, but it's definitely not makeup tutorials.
