    I mostly agree with them though, because a lot of the content on tiktok is pretty much useless stuff that wastes your time you have to scroll a lot to actually get somthing useful that is well researched. On lemmy most of the posts have proper content and articles(ignoring memes).

      Something doesn’t have to be useful or well researched to be worth your time. It’s ok to just be entertained for a while.
