Pretty much every single social platform has already tried to copy it (e.g. YouTube shorts, Facebook and Instagram reels, I don’t remember what Snapchat calls theirs, etc). The difference is how well TikTok’s algorithm works and the overall user experience, plus the established userbase. Tons of younger people hate Meta and their products, they view them as old people social media, so they’ve mostly failed to recapture the younger demographic at large (except maybe Snapchat, that for some reason has steadily kept a non-insignificant younger userbase).
That being said, I won’t be surprised if a TikTok clone emerges that’s run by some “American” company called LiteStance or something where ByteDance just so happens to be an angel investor.
Fine. It isn’t rocket science to create a clone app. Bet there are some already emerging.
Waiting for truth-tok to show up

In b4 “new from X: Æ!”
Can’t be worse that the garbage YouTube shorts are. Why do I see the same videos over and over again.
