In terms of enjoyment, TikTok used to be like a best friend. Now it's like a coworker who works in sales and wants me to like them. I've reset my feed settings so many times because TikTok gets so boring.
I have days where my feed turns into constant marketing videos. Like there will be ads but then the videos I get shown are people talking about a specific product or program. They don't directly come out and say they are promoting something. It's like subliminal marketing. I wish I had an example of this. I just know it when I see it.
