I Will Never Download TikTok. Here is Why
It is not for privacy reasons
TikTok has been around since 2016 and has become quite a sensation around the world.
But I still haven’t checked it out. I know nothing about it except that it’s a popular video app. And I don’t want to know more.
I know I’m not the only one. There are plenty of people not giving a damn about the app. Some people are just not that interested in new trending social media apps or video format in general.
But I seem to be the ideal candidate to become a TikTok user.
I used to love Vine and Musical.ly when they were popular, and I’ve been addicted to Instagram for around 5 years.
So why haven’t I tried TikTok yet?
I’ve been struggling with my relationship with social media for many years now.
Being an active social media user has a lot of downsides.
Some of the ones I was facing for years were comparing myself to others, an unhealthy obsession with perfecting everything I post, a decrease in willpower, and constantly feeling like I’m not doing or achieving enough.
Even though I knew that the reason for my problems was my use of social media, I still struggled to get off of it.
