I’ve never really used tiktok, but with Reddit shitting the bed it’s time to expand my horizons and create a social media “mix”

So yesterday I’m watching tiktok for pretty much the first time having a real go at it, and I noticed when I’m scrolling the videos are all kinda meh, then I click back (to exit on android) and I get a “decent” one, so I hang around and watch it, then scrolling more meh, back, decent video. Is this a thing? I ended up just clicking back to game the system, if I really liked the video I would reward tiktok with a scroll, if it gives me a shit video, back again.

Am I nuts?

I have never heard of this, casually been on tiktok for a while, they’re all on the edge of their seat and make a vid on every little conspiracy theory but I’ve never heard of that before. btw the not interested button is your best friend when you start using tiktok, I used to spam that shit every other vid
