Do you use tik tok, if you are middle-aged?

[Anonymous]

No and my middle aged coworkers that use it are the unhappiest people I have ever known.

I'm 56. I've enjoyed it. I've purchased a lot of stuff and have gone to many places because of TikTok. For instance, yesterday, I saw that Rent the Runway was having a 90% off sale on Conn Avenue until Feb 8th. I went and cleaned up! I would never have seen it. I've found amazing lip sticks - all kinds of things. I've also found duds but have had no problems sending back. I get lots of ideas.

How was the sale? They had one a few months ago and it sucked.

No bc I am middle aged. I’ll see it on Instagram eventually.

No. I considered it but decided I already waste enough time on my phone, on social media.

Agree with PP that I enjoy Tik Tok and Reddit the most. I find Tik Tok to be a lot more interesting and it has a lot less vanity than Instagram and Facebook. Tik tok is more about information and niche interests and not mundane details about people’s lives who think they are celebrities when they are not. I also find really interesting takes from really smart people on TT. I learn about new restaurants, coffee shops, places to go as well…Maybe my feed is curated to what I’m interested on there, but I am challenged to think critically, or I just gain food for thought on there. I’m also going to hit up the rent the runway sale now that I learned about it here - thanks for the tip!

Never.

45 year old. I found TikTok super enjoyable, but also a total time suck (I could sit and watch for HOURS, yikes) and a lot of crap content.

I deleted a few months ago.

TikTok is a Chinese government espionage tool. Anyone with two brain cells knows this.

Only the truly ignorant use TikTok in 2026.

Are you a Republican congressman or senator? Because I can explain this to you AGAIN if you need that. It looked like you needed that when you were questioning TikTok some 2 years ago.
