This app could potentially supplant Tik Tok overtime. As Tik Tok’s censorship following it’s acquisition by US investors such as Oracle, Silver Lake, and Abu Dhabi-based MGX, and UpScrolled already having questionable ethics, this may be the path forward.

    I wonder if it will function more like Vine?

    Maybe it’s because I’m a decade older now, but Vine seemed awesome and I would jump on it for 10-20 minutes a day and have no problem putting it down, even forgetting to check it a week at a time.

    I haven’t touched tik tok because it seems like it is much more toxic and addictive in comparison.

      I don’t think they made it addictive. Making an app addictive requires a lot of labour with people from different areas.
