Topic: YOUTUBE VS TIKTOK - page 3. (Read 847 times)

Each platform excels in a different specialty.
TikTok has an advantage in that its popularity is still growing, while YouTube's growth has slowed slightly.
Tiktok is widely used by young people, while YouTube is used by adults, this factor causes TikTok's popularity to continue to increase.
I don't care about TikTok's popularity because I prefer YouTube.

While the format of content on TikTok has also been adopted by YouTube because they now have this 'shorts' feature. A place for all of their short videos is categorized as shorts just as TikTok has and the same goes with Facebook for having their reels. Before it was like not allowed to view videos from TikTok and it's just like exclusive for the app but now, I see that they've adopted also the desktop viewing and even you don't log in, they're allowing guests and visitors to view video contents as long as they have the links of it.

Each of them is peculiar in the context of use: For me, when I feel like relaxing and in need of something to calm myself down, I just flip through my TikTok and enjoy those short videos. But when it comes to educative content, YouTube provides a wide range of channels that allow you to take online courses in an organized manner. But the two are unique in their ways.

I prefer YouTube to TikTok because it has more educational materials and it supports files download in many formats. I also noticed that TikTok zaps alot of data than YouTube.  

It is not good for you since you have not been able to learn anything from it. but it is a different case for another person. Surprisingly there will be some people who have learnt some kind of Sturgis from TikTok. If it is not a tech knowledge, social knowledge also counts for something because that is what some people are seeking to learn.

YouTube has enough to learn from if you are the type that loves knowledge and entertainment. As fro TikTok I see it as something irrelevant that wouldn't add any value to me because it is all about some video that looks fun sometimes and most people will spend their time looking at this videos and wasting their data. I believe that TikTok is not for me because it doesn't worth my data. One man food is another man's poison,I deleted the TikTok app in my phone because the moment my neighbor gets hold of my phone it is tiktok that she will open first.

One can get more entertainment on Youtube. Both of them censor stuff somewhat, but Youtube is worse.

I prefer youtube between TikTok and youtube I can get a lot of knowledge from youtube very easily and when I go to search option any video is informative fun educational science friendly There are all kinds of videos I can skip which increase my knowledge a lot and widen the scope of knowledge, but TikTok only gives comedy there are many educational videos, but it is not available to me, I have to watch through the whole apps one by one, but I don't have to watch what comes one by one, my YouTube is the most important thing to search and watch what I need.On YouTube, I can listen to music whenever I want to know anything sir to make it and to know any kind of news or other things my YouTube is very important.In my opinion YouTube is very important for the advancement of today's world it helps people to gain their knowledge, and also it is a place of great income many YouTubers are earning millions of dollars.But TikTok is doing it but not all of them are very few people who are doing it are more and those who are doing it are quite a benefit here is that TikTok is very important to become a celebrity here any person owns You can be a hero-heroine in the world, you can create your own attitude, desire, desire and stay there, but I personally like YouTube, I don't like TikTok very much, it's my personal opinion.Both are important for income, but I will put YouTube first.

I agree with you YouTube is good social media app. We can get all type of information from this youtube beacuse Creative content is available on YouTube. YouTube gave job to thousand of people earning money for creating videos. According to User interest YouTube artificial intelligence work on it and first page of YouTube of every person is different from other according to user watch history and interest. If someone search for cryptocurrencies related video YouTube shows all types of matches which are wish of uers YouTube only shows that information that this person likes and very similar to Crypto. But TikTok is not this type of social media app and not filter information like YouTube. YouTube content is helpful for our society and every country

YouTube is good and more detailed plus you can get things on every topic but tiktok is little fast and more of entertainment I think so .
Personally I go for YouTube for surfing as I find it organized and detailed.

And these are being consumed by most kids and teenagers, that's why it's no good when I am seeing those videos there. Not all are just for entertainment but I do see some that are for educational. But that's it, the majority of the content there is for trends and just for fun and that's why there's no essence that a kid will get there but useless content. Even those kids have made their lives end when they're following the trend that's why some of the content makers there are irresponsible and making that place bad for kids if they ever consume content there. While both platforms are now vast, I also prefer YouTube. I may not that be old enough to understand the trends why the younger ones like TikTok so much but I do like YT more.

Depending on what you will use it for.
For social videos and entertainment, I prefer TikTok but for serious vedio contents and development videos, YouTube is far better than TikTok.
Most promoters prefer YouTube due to its professionalism and quality video contents that is why most influencers use YouTube to promote good projects related to Bitcoin and crypto.

I prefer YouTube over TikTok.
Probably it is because I have never used TikTok and I grew up using YouTube. I also do not like the fact TikTok is a Chinese company which likely has links to the Communist Chinese Party.

In the end, it is kinda about who one would rather to have one's personal information and (in my opinion) the Chinese government have politized in a more brutal way the mass surveillance of their population, to the point I would avoid to give them any about me if possible.  At least in the United States, there are some legal mechanisms to try to stop or slow down Authocracy meeting Technology.

The Chinese don't allow their people to watch TikTok.  Zuckerberg doesn't let his kids on Facebook.  So I've heard anyway.  I would guess that most of my former peers in Silicon Valley would not let their kids near Youtube Shorts.  Seems to be a pattern here.  The content is retard-chow, and 'you are what you eat.'   That's even before the woke grooming component which is truly disturbing and amazingly effective, so it seems as I watch society evolve.

I’ve never used TikTok and quite frankly it always seemed very stupid to me. My generation thought it was embarrassing to be caught dancing dumb on video, so the whole thing is beyond me. Seems like a way for pedos to watch little kids dance if you ask me. Add in that it’s a spy tool for China and TikTok might be the worst app ever created in my opinion. Definitely nowhere near YouTube.

Oh, I totally agree with you! YouTube all the way! It's got loads of useful and creative content, plus a massive collection of high-quality videos. Can't beat that! 😄

Preferably for me Youtube this is because YouTube have been here long enough and have provides a lot of information on several topic in a virtual manner that are shared by different YouTubers, even though tiktok is trending, it can't meet up with the standards youtube have set and how many databases both have.

So we can't compare the two of them as their are not in the same category and since YouTube has existed longer than Tiktok it is easier for them to gain the trust and admiration of many users.

I totally understand the addiction for relatively short videos that go directly to the main point and are entertaining at the same time. It's not all dances and challenges, there is ton of good and fun content.
But at the same time it's totally spyware and China is not even denying it. Because they don't need to, it's not like people care or are against it so much they would leave.

So yeah, i have installed it into my other phone i am using to test stuff to see what's the fuss is about and i get it. But not in the million years i would install it in my actual phone.

Also youtube has way more diversity in content and ton of professionally created material.

It is that there is not even room for comparison to the extent that you do it, who is better, just because a service makes video does not mean that they can be fully compared.

TT positioned itself in the competition for vertical videos in a way that YT did not, but in the long run YT is taking a segment there, then it surely ends up dominating.

Talking about the quality of the content is another story, but as a platform in a global consumer sense, YT is better.

I also prefer YouTube, there are clips of great interest and video sizes that suit everyone, but TikTok is like fast food that does not benefit much.
