YOUTUBE VS TIKTOK

[Bananington]

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.

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.

Which one is better   YouTube or TikTok.

I prefer YouTube because more usefull more creative content
it's just  large catalog of high quality videos.

So, What do you think?

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.

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.

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 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.

for you, I will choose YouTube over TikTok. YouTube will educate and give you full details you want. while TikTok is only to entertain you.

I’d say there are also a lot of quality videos in tiktok. You just need to follow the right people. Tiktok is helpful for those who have very short attention span. There’s a lot of information/tutorials found in tiktok in the form of one-minute videos. You can even send videos to your friends without leaving the app which is something you can’t do in youtube. There’s also a lot less ads in tiktok compared to youtube or even if there’s a lot, it’s not noticeable.

I'm not sure if this post is important or not, I mean whether it has any useful essence. but if I have to answer honestly, I have never downloaded the TikTok application. In fact, when this application provides payments to users or content creators, I really am not interested at all. Here, I don't want to give a bad stamp to TikTok and its users. However, based on my personal point of view, Tiktok does nothing more than display useless things. there are many teenagers who I don't understand what they are doing, in fact most of them are just looking for sensation and using it to make money. and actually there is nothing wrong with that, in fact everyone is free to like what they want.

Youtube, for me is a little better. I can even get the information I need, whether for work, entertainment, education, even other positive things. unlike in the 2000s, when we want to dig up information, or learn something, we have to look for it in related forums or from an article. Even then, you have to really pay attention and read it. Now everything is instant, we can even easily find the information we want. a little easier, but IMO the impact makes most people lazy and less creative. because, we can easily find everything from YouTube. What I don't like the most is that now YouTube also has a lot of useless content just to get as much interest as possible, no matter whether it's educational or not, even misleading or not.

Since this topic is partially about TikTok.
Does anyone here also remember some application called "Vine"? It was quite popular back in the early 2010s.

It was a quite early TikTok and (if I recall correctly) it was developed by the same people behind Twitter (now rebranded as X).

They shutted down the project, unfortunately, but had they continued to give it support then Twitter would have had the control of what could have been the leading platform for short videos on this planet.

Imagine how different things could have been: Elon Musk owning both Twitter and Vine.

YouTube and TikTok both have their own unique advantages & appeal to different audiences. YouTube is a well established platform with a vast range of content including tutorials, documentaries, music& entertainment. It allows for longer videos & offers a wider variety of genres and topics. TikTok is known for its short, creative & engaging videos that are often focused on trends, challenges & user generated content. I personally preter Youtube but I’m an old fart. I think the youngsters prefer Tiktok.

It's not fair to compare them since they serve different purposes 😏. To me I use them for different purposes. TikTok serves as a source of relaxation for me, and occasionally, I use it for advertising. While it's mostly for fun, YouTube plays a more valuable role. I primarily use it for educational purposes and believe it offers an opportunity to earn income as well. So, the perspective and intended use truly shape their significance in my life. It's a draw I understand them both.

TikTok inflates view counts and overpays creators because it is a con to get you to install the spyware onto your phone. People using the service have been bamboozled and their data stolen. YouTube is a great platform with lots of amazing creators that underpays them and censors the hell out of their content. At least it isn’t spyware though.

[Tiger420]

I like very much YouTube for its useful and creative content and its extensive catalog of high-quality videos. Both platforms have their own strengths and cater to different types of content and audiences, but I like YouTube.😊

[Gozie51]

YouTube is more preferred for me because they sensor certain videos that are not proper for public and kids viewing which makes it more major so that why visiting YouTube you can watch with your kids and not be worried about the content of the next video. It also generate alot of traffic for YouTubers, you get to see popular personalities from every works of life. Although TikTok has some of those features but yet to be patronized by popular celebrities. Most celebrities don't throw their videos in TikTok because they know it doesn't have wide coverage like YouTube.

YouTube is the closest we have to a time machine. You can watch a video made in the 90s on YouTube and that's not even the best feature on YouTube. The best feature for me is the fact that you can learn anything you want on YouTube.
I've taken so many online classes on YouTube. I've gotten help with many problems on YouTube be it maths problems, coding problems, or how to fix something on my phone or laptop. I can make a long list of the things I've learned on YouTube.

There's also the fact that I can also be entertained on YouTube. Watch funny videos and have a laugh. To me, that's all TikTok is about. Watching videos on TikTok, however interesting it might be just doesn't work for me.

There's no way TikTok can be compared to YouTube.

[MR~]

Always YouTube better.

[ZeeshanTrade]

Youtube is the best. You can find any type of content here. TikTok is like youtube shorts. So I think youtube shorts are better than TikTok.

[xvacator]

Youtube and TikTok have their respective advantages and disadvantages so we cannot compare them. After all, YouTube and TikTok are different even though they are both social media. The purpose is also different so you will use it for your needs. If you want to find videos, YouTube is probably the place. TikTok is a place to express yourself using short videos.

[Aisha_jay]

Choosing between YouTube and TikTok depends on your preferences and needs. YouTube is great for longer, more in-depth content, tutorials, and a wide range of topics. It's like a library of videos.
TikTok is perfect for short, snappy, and creative content. It's all about quick entertainment and trends. So, it's not about which is better, it's about what suits you.

Well for me Tiktok is not a app that I like to you very much. I think it is for kids and for people to show off themself. If I see a funny clip or something like that sometimes it will be on Tiktok but I do not take this app too serious.

But Youtube I like to use almost every single day. It has many purposes for me, educational and entertainment. Like if I want to find a answer for something or for something helpful I will use Youtube. There is videos for almost everything on there.
