Do you guys like watching short videos, like TikTok videos? Why?

Aaron Jackson @aaron_jacksonyy

@witt_teo Yes, they are relaxing. But we need to control the amount of time spent on it.

I don't like it very much. I don't see much

@aaron_jacksonyy I don't like it either. TikTok is addictive. That's why I'm afraid to install it on my phone.

Minha Nadeem @mahad_kamran

Lets just say that it's the thing I waste most of my time on.

@mahad_kamran I also waste a lot of time on my phone...

Seeing Chen @seeing_chen

My time on the subway belongs to it~

@seeing_chen Glad to hear you enjoyed your subway time!

Jason Lee @jason_lee_3282

Yes, there are a lot of funny content on it, let me relax.

@jason_lee_3282 Yeah, there are many interesting content creators!

Anne Broadwin @annebroadwin

actually no. I think it's low efficiency to absorb info in videos, although they present far more. I just like controlling the speed like when i'm reading a book

@annebroadwin That's true. Too many short videos tend to make people lose concentration.

Joe Shaw @joeshaw0129

So addictive🆘

@joeshaw0129 It seems that short videos are the leading trend now.

Jason Andries @jason_andries1

I like it because you're able to soak up more information in a short span of time and do more in-depth research on the topic if you'd like to

@jason_andries1 Yes, we live in the age of information explosion. That's really one way we connect to the world.

Anoir Houmou @anoirhoumou

Yes! Informative short videos tend to prompt audiences to do their own research after consuming a short content piece.

@anoirhoumou Yeah, there are a lot of informative short videos!

Isabel Hely @isabel_hely

Yes. But I want to lose this habit.

@isabel_hely That does bring a lot of fun. It's important to have fun, but we need to control the time we spend on it.

Krishnaswamy Anand Ganesh @krishnaswamy_anand_ganesh

I think the sheer diversity of emotions and experience in a very short span keeps us hooked

@krishnaswamy_anand_ganesh Agree. That's why we indulge in it.

Angeli Zhao @angeli_

I try to watch them as little as possible, so much is known about the negative effects of scrolling through too much short videos. Instead, I try to stick to longer, more informative videos of topics I'm interested in on Youtube.

@angeli_ I prefer text, followed by longer videos, such as documentaries or films. Hope all goes well with your goal!

Rebecca Tany @rebeccatany

I like Tiktok, a good way to relax and get to know new trendings

@rebeccatany That's true. That's where we can learn a lot.

Indu Thangamuthu @indu_thangamuthu

Nope.

Indu Thangamuthu @indu_thangamuthu

@lydia_cohen Thanks ya. I'm more of a bookworm person. 🌞

Sara Arcouet @sara_arcouet

Yes. It's very convenient because you can learn different things in a very short time. After that, you have to be careful with this platform because a lot of videos are made to make the buzz because of the pay. And the algorithm on Tik Tok is very present.
