    I’m not sure I see this being very effective. In my opinion, the draw of TikTok isn’t the short video format itself (there’s plenty of mid-length content from 3-10 minutes on there), it’s the algorithm. Every other platform without the addictive and incredibly personalized algorithm loses the draw because that’s the only way the infinitely-scrolling random short form content pipeline works for people.
