Brian Dear@caseynewton "The real front page of the internet . . . is TikTok" . . . . hmm, we have very very different internets........
@brianstorms talk to anyone under 40 where they are getting their internet culture! one site comes up more than all the others …
Jesse@caseynewton @brianstorms Under 40 might be pushing it a little, no?
HCMarks@misc @caseynewton @brianstorms TikTok has a surprisingly diverse audience and a significant portion of that is over 50. It’s not just “for the kids” - I see that in my stats daily.
@hcmarks @caseynewton @brianstorms Don't doubt it! To be clear, I was just raising my eyebrows at "ask anyone under 40" - as a late 30-something I get the sense that it's just not a *dominant* force among my peers as it is with younger cohorts, maybe even 5 years younger. Of course that's all extremely subjective, I'm open to being surprised!
