My friend (24,M) who got together with his girlfriend (23,F) about a year ago had a pact to not check each others’ phones in the name of trust. This pact got revoked for reasons unknown and he realized he is in deep trouble.
How to influence the algo???
Bro has won in TikTok’s algorithm. XMMs, university students, OLs, you name it, his FYP has it.
When did TikTok come out? Google says September 2016. Mans spent hours daily scrolling and liking any content that has girls he finds cute, maybe a few food videos, maybe some cats.
The things we do for love
Alas, now that his phone can be checked by his gf, he needs to clear out his ‘liked’ content. On the first day of operation: CLEANSE, he spent 3 hours in bed un-liking as many as he could. A friend was helping him to check and scrolled through his liked content to check their progress only to find out that he has been literally scrolling down for 4 minutes and the liked videos has not yet ended. If I had to put a number on the number of videos he liked I could safely say it’s above 5000.
When asked “bro why you have so many liked videos?”, he looked at us and he really said: “Ting ting ting tang tang ting”
He hopped on the computer cause pointing and clicking might be faster than un-liking them on an iPhone. We will all chilling at a friend’s house together and when it was time to go home he was still at it. See, this is why you download and save them elsewhere instead of liking them you don’t like so much content.
I have not heard from my friend in a few days.. I hope he is still alive. #1view1prayer
