These apps/video styles are literally addictive. It's a bottomless pit of a perfectly curated feed. 1hr and 27 minutes a day on TikTok is the most insane thing I have ever heard. I'd argue that a lot of kids who are addicted to tiktok could not sit down and enjoy a movie or book.
I would argue that you could not even sit down and enjoy a book. Which is not a bad thing as your generation was faster then the previous generation and didn't had enough free time to read books to relief stress. Similarly that is the case for this newer generation as well.
It’s 90 mins 100 different ideas and relatable content VS 90 mins 1 long story maybe awesome or total waste of time. Just preference no need to feel superior. Plus TikTok gives grass root content makers opportunities to share their ideas without needing to be rich and owning all the fancy equipment.
I make an effort to use none of them. Got addicted to social media when I was young and it was horrible for me. I will not let that happen again as an adult.
Me too, even UA-cam is not too valuable nowadays, downloaded it onto my iPad 10 minutes ago and it’s getting deleted in a few, I didn’t miss it when it wasn’t on the tablet. Just keep it for music when I want to play something that’s not on Apple Music or Spotify.
@@littledudefromacrossthestr5755 Clearly, because if everybody cared about how I used social media.... that would be weird..... Not every contribution to a conversation needs to have 100% consensus to be said....
people doent understand how distructive these platforms are for your health. Instant gratification, leading to low attentions spans possibly creating a generation of people who are more depressed, more discontented and unable to focus on anything meaniful. This is the most powerful methods of social engineering we have ever had.
I'm glad this video mentioned data privacy, but there are deeper problems with these platforms that are not being discussed nearly enough. From feeding cycles of constant outrage, to misinformation, and to addiction, it feels like these short video platforms are a recipe for combining the worst problems that we've seen crop up on social media. I hope there is more focus on this soon.
Videos first get posted to Tiktok, a week later, they are on Reels and UA-cam shorts. Tiktok has a great algorithm that drives a young audience. The next 5 years are all about short content and social media tools getting a place to explore.
Thanks to capitalism. Engineers need money to compete for housing and ad tech platforms pay way more and generally have great work environments. Realistically most work at NASA is slow and bureaucratic; young engineers would rather work for SpaceX.
I feel like Instagram will become the new Facebook in a couple years from now, losing to Snapchat and Tiktok. However, I do think UA-cam overtime can dominate TikTok if they make shorts more consumer friendly.
Instagram is going to destroy itself trying to take out TikTok. They're two completely different platforms for two completely different use cases. It tried to take out Snapchat with stories which kind of works but there's no way it's taking down TikTok. No way at all.
Yes. The only one that will win are big corpos while attention span/retention will shorten thanks to short video platforms. Also mental health will deteriorate.
I remember that during the initial attempt to ban TikTok, we weren't looking at IG & YT to fill in this potential void. Rather, we were looking at new companies like Triller, Byte (now Clash), Dubsmash (now Reddit), Likee (though that app is also Chinese), and so on. When TikTok got banned in India, people didn't turn to IG and YT, but rather, they looked at new India-based startup apps as well as Triller and Clash.
All of them should stop trying to be each other, and instead just do what they are good at. There's enough room for everyone to have their different platforms.
I wish, but each app is afraid of the other app stealing their userbase, and subsequently ad revenue, that they’re trying to knock each other down to hold on to as many users as possible.
UA-cam and Meta/Instagram will always have a problem where short-form videos are cannibalizing their existing offerings, photos and long-form videos specifically, and turning away some creators and celebs. Much of their popularity derives from their existing content creators being pushed to make these short videos, and the India Tiktok ban. Thus neither will be as good as Tiktok, which is single-mindedly focused on these short videos. Why do they do it? They do it because there's a real risk that Tiktok will be banned in America, and they want to exploit any opening this will create. And if you think Tiktok is addictive, its Chinese sister-app Douyin is much, much more advanced and addicting. ByteDance has really turned this business into an art form.
Not really, if you watch what WSJ are saying,UA-cam shorts have gained so much momentum after their 2021 launch. It’s actually not hard to catch up, it’s just algorithm. Aside from that, UA-cam has a huge professional communities, not like tiktok. For long videos, UA-cam is the king!
@@kennykwok Much of that momentum came from India banning Tiktok. Momentum =/= good, additive content that keeps you swiping. Most of what I see in UA-cam Shorts are either reposted Tiktok videos, or UA-camrs trying their hand (and generally failing) at making shorts. UA-cam shorts just suck generally. I mean have a look at Linus Tech Tips making shorts. They're nothing but cringe.
@@kennykwok There's a reason why Tiktok is a top downloaded app with more than a billion active users even with the India ban, and why UA-cam and Instagram are shamelessly copying Tiktok, and in Instagram's case literally shoving short videos into the app against the will of big name celebrity influencers like Kylie Jenner. Bytedance is very, very good at what they do with Tiktok and Douyin. They're easily the best in the world. And there are very few UA-cam videos in Tiktok because why? Tiktok uses vertical videos, which the UA-cam community has always gone against for many, many years because UA-cam previously didn't show vertical videos correctly. And one final thing: When Kylie announced that she left Snapchat, the company lost $1 billion in valuation. We'll see if she decides to leave Instagram next.
Lol, there’s no “best thing”. What’s next? Another cancer app made for brain dead people with low self esteem and phone addictions, who deny they’re and lie to themselves there’s any worth in using those apps. Some people enjoy posting on instagram but those are rare nowadays.
@@OAMnez Haha!! Point well made … the race is still running, and it won’t really end until all competitors are crushed/give up and join a different race …
Can’t say the same about stories and snapchat. As soon as other platforms adopted the story format snapchat became redundant. Of course, TikTok ain’t no Snapchat, but the point is that reels and shorts are attempting to slow TikTok’s growth as much as possible by absorbing what makes TikTok unique in the first place. We’ll see how successful or unsuccessful these attempts are in the near future.
Shorts has the most substance/actual quality content to draw upon already, and being added all the time … it may take a while/long time even, but substance always wins out in the end …
But TikTok got banned in India and India is a HUGE market. Over a billion people and eventually will be the most populated country in the world. The reason why Reels and Shorts are catching up is because of the Indian market. After being the most addicted country to TikTok, the users looked for an alternative and Reels and Shorts came to the rescue.
I only watch UA-cam shorts when content creators I subscribed to use it. 99% of the time I use Tiktok but I also deactivate the App because it's so addicting.
These short videos are going to destroy society. They are making us impulsive, depressed, impatient, dumber, and more agitated. It's rotting our brains. We are headed in the WRONG direction.
TikTok had short reposts of YT vids tho, and in defense of YT shorts, many of the shorts on there are higher quality and are edited to the same extent as a regular YT video. And the fact that there are lots of tiktok reposts makes it better, as it makes downloading a separate app (TikTok) more useless.
These apps should just stick to what they were made for. UA-cam for long content, Tiktok for short content, Instagram for Pictures, and snapchat for stories
I spend a TON of time on UA-cam, quite a bit more daily time than on TikTok, but zero of it is on Shorts. That is NOT what I use UA-cam for, and instead find the Shorts incredibly annoying. I do use TikTok daily and indeed am likely around that hour and a halfish average. TikTok is great, but UA-cam is can easily pull me in for 8-12, 8-30 minutes videos a day...isn't that enough?
Short form videos is just a symptom of the short attention span of our society. Nobody can sit down and read a book or watch an hour long documentary anymore. And advertizers are going to really like this format in the long run (when ads become a larger part of the ecosystems) if it sticks because we will be watching a larger percentage of ads vs content.
This is fascinating to me since it doesn’t talk to much about the “user experience” on each of these platforms. Most conversations that I’ve observed and have been apart of always mention how the tiktoks experience has constantly reigned supreme. The only app in which I feel as if I am actively watching trends form is tiktok and until these other apps actually begin to try to recreate that aspect TikTok will always be supreme.
Here's an idea for you old timers; maybe Instagram is trying to adapt to what's going on instead of staying the same to please a bunch of people that aren't the target advertising market. You evolve or get left behind.
I really hate shorts. I've stopped looking at my subscription tab because of it. I'm glad youtube allow me to hide the one they recommend, only for a month though. Not sure for how long they will allow the hiding of their new 'feature'
I personally like shorts the most. Since I can transition from watching long videos to shorts by just scrolling a bit, instead of having to switch apps. Shorts has reuploads of TikTok too, without the dancing 14 yr olds. Instagram reels just gets cursed after scrolling for a while.
It’s all down hill since Instagram implemented Reels. I want Instagram not a knockoff of TikTok with trash content that only exists to get you addicted.
The post of UA-cam shorts is like late behind TikTok for 30 years. Those posts on short are outdated. Can't believe people say UA-cam shorts s better💀💀💀
5:20 gaining faster on TikTok. It’s actually UA-cam. You’re was the correct answer. That’s where shorts are and that’s who alphabet owns. Who’s doing these UA-cam videos?
I really hate that society doesn't take the future ramifications of their products. There already have been concerns shown around the use of such service on the human brain. I fear for the next generation of youth growing up in the world these large tech companies are creating. Wonder why people are getting shorter than ever attention spans in recorded history? I have already boycotted these short video services in my life, and instead watch long form non-fiction documentaries on UA-cam, which I think is much better for my overall brain health. I guess the best part of our world, is that people can make their own choices, regardless of the potential health effects, so all I'll say, is do your research, and don't support what you don't believe will be a benefit to humanity as a whole.
Yeah tiktok pretty much won the only reason why tiktok waited years to grow this much is because it used to not have a large audience unlike Google who owns UA-cam that explains why shorts grew so fast in a matter of 2 or 3 years youtube has a chance to win but the others are far behind
Honestly, YT shorts is better man. I'm not downloading a separate app just to watch short form content if I already can on this website and app. I use TikTok sometimes to see friends but not often. I even prefer the content on YT shorts, which are anything but reposts from TikTok. Not trying to put too much shame on TikTok, but tbh I don't like it that much. And I'm in the same age group that is known for using this app a lot, but no thanks. Most of my friends don't even use TikTok either.
If privacy is your concern, simply dont use any of these apps, is just that simple (they sell your DATA to make money in case you dont know). Tell all your friends and family to contact you via your phone number instead from these corporate apps.
Honestly, it seems (from my own experience) that TikTok is becoming the town square, Instagram is becoming the artistic space, and...idk about UA-cam shorts tbh 🤷♂️. They'll probably all exist for their growing niche without too much overlap soon. That's my guess anyways; time will tell.
A lot of them are. And saying you "can't follow the trend" is stupid. Doing trends that like for 3 days is stupid. Most of these trends will be forgotten and most of them are cringe. I'm sorry that not everyone wants to do cringey stuff, but that doesn't mean they can't do it. I'm sure a lot of people can do the stupid bs they do on there. Wanna know why they don't? Don't like to repeat myself, but cause its stupid. And not worth doing.
