I don’t use tiktok for reasons that would be preaching to the choir here, but pardon me for asking… Isn’t everything on TikTok an ad? Like they’re either telling people to buy a book, put sugary syrup in water, buy organising plastic containers, selling slime, selling ice cube trays that ironically make them no longer cubes, selling makeup, clothing hauls, generating affiliate revenue, asking people to enlist… I could go on. It’s just ads all the way down? What would someone see if they removed all the #ad posts?

My tiktok fyp is mostly cooking videos, animals, skits and music stuff. If they’re trying to advertise something they’re doing a terrible job.
But one is your favorite creator and one isnt.
But yes, both are essentially ads.
