Making shitty videos is a stupid hobby, not a job.
what's with this curmudgeon type shit? their livelihood is at risk. just because you're not part of the ecosystem doesn't mean you need to dismiss a way to make money thats worked for quite a few people.
They're lice riding on the back of a large and very efficient predator.
Nothing they can do on that platform benefits humankind, though it might funnel some money in the "creators'" direction. They're no better than the teenagers that run bindles of smack from the trap house to the junkie for a couple of bucks.
this is a social media app that creators can make videos on. i think you're overreacting just a bit, man.
its not the end of the world. people making content that people enjoy on a video app isn't going to ruin the youth.
relax.
