Comment on Why Instagram failed to become TikTokparent

Comments

TikTok's is far more addictive and engaging. instagram content is mostly just reposted TikTok for millennials to see two weeks later. Pause and check out the same content on TikTok and you'll see far more engagement and be sucked into the rabbit hole just for watching.

That's the right term, it's addictive but I wouldn't say it's engaging.

Every time I am uninstalling TikTok my life feels better, more relaxed.

Moving to my new phone I've again left it uninstalled, now for 2 months and I hope I can keep it that way

So you imply millennials usually are on Instagram. This mirrors another comment here that; Gen Z is on TikTok and boomers are on Facebook - seems likely, people keep to their age group mostly.

So if that were the case and Instagram only gets content reposted from Tiktok, it would mean that millenials do not produce content. But of course they do.

do not produce content

that would be an interesting observation if I hadn't written

is mostly just

words matters
