So true. I deleted yesterday; The mean comparison, the subtle attack on one’s character; The petty nasty comments from strangers; The work to climb up views and some people posting nothing yet in the 100ks, people using filters (me) and trying to look like “the glam filter”, feeling bad a because I am not the filter and more; then TIK TOK constantly saying I’m in community violation for sharing fun while others post soft porn or suggest adult content while knowing my nieces (in high school) are watching adult relations; glad I left; and up until 3am in the morning; wondering why people don’t like posts that I took a lot of time to work on (writing, lighting, hair, makeup etc. all for strangers who don’t care and I’ll never meet); I left (again) this time for good; addictions require therapy, so it’s one day at a time for me (at age 69😮💨

I deleted it after 4 years of active use every day for at least 3-5 hours... The very next day I forgot about it and I had no need to waste my life on that application of perfect lives and bodies 🤦🏼♀️🤣 You should do it too!

Tbh, from the very start when tiktok got popular, i didnt really like it, and i never will try it or get myself to like it. Why? Its like all the reasons you said in the video. No matter the community, topics, etc, all of them are very, VERY toxic. Plus, most controversies ive heard are always stated to come out of tiktok, im so glad that even though ALMOST ALL of my family uses it, i dont care. My choice is my choice, and id rather not get influenced and have my mind controlled by the effects of tik tok.

I'm not really deleting tiktok, since sometimes I might watch some videos during my free time.. I gave myself a limit, and I'm just taking a break for now, see how I feel without using that app everyday. But honestly, I feel more free when I don't open the app, and I MIGHT delete it for the sake of my mental health.

Personally I’m just so tired of all those ‘trends’ and ‘eras’ and ‘cores’. What on gods green earth is ‘chocolate milk nails’ or 'tomato girl makeup’?? And don’t get me started on the Stanley cup madness. Overconsumption core to underconsumption core, literally every part or tiny detail is an era or core. I’m too old for that shit and it breaks my heart thinking about the fast paced, generic, superficial space young kids are growing up with online. All in all TikTok simply shrinks your attention span and personality and has an overall negative impact on society in my experience and observation. To me the few benefits of the app simply crumble in comparison to all the negatives.

I found out TikTok has found my data and personal information ever since I’ve made an account and it’s been a living hell for my life and made me feel so scared for me and my family which is why I deleted it. It’s not safe, it’s literally spyware, they’ve been also watching FUCKING PORN on my Google account and Safari which is disgusting. I always want to cry because of TikTok. It should be deleted out of America, better yet just delete the app. They get people’s IP Addresses, data, and passwords for accounts. Please. Can someone just end TikTok so they can end people’s suffering and paranoid, I don’t want anyone to suffer the way me or other people did online. I almost threw away my phone, please. Someone must do the job.

I'm deleting it as well. When I'm on Tikrok, I waste so much time watching other people's highlight reels, and it causes me a lot of depression. I want to use my time to be productive and work towards achieving my goals. A big thing is that it distracted me from school. I'll say I'll just scroll for a few minutes, and then next thing you know, it's been an hour, and now I have to rush and get all my work done and sometimes I don't even finish. TikTok also messes with your attention span and ability to remember long loads of information. You waste so much time watching videos you won't even remember in 5 minutes. That app is not worth the insecurities, comparison, and anxiety it causes!

I deleted the app today My fyp was full of social controversies , racism and sexism Too political So many hate accounts Tiktok has turned into Twitter The amount of relief I had after deleting Twitter was great also the same way I deleted Twitter today on 26th July 2024 I was tempted to become hateful in retaliation but I didn't So after deleting it...I don't think I'll ever be considering reinstalling it again Seeing that there are other people like me who feel the same way really makes me.happy to be honest

My reasons for not using it. I used to have TikTok… for only a couple seconds before deleting it. 1. It’s too toxic. You’ve got videos of people tearing others down, the comments might have people arguing or bullying each other because they don’t look or act a certain way. 2. Too much insecurity, ruins your self esteem, body image, and gives people depression, anxiety, and many issues. And it ruins your mental health. 3. It’s a time waster. You could be scrolling through TikTok for hours on end, and not even realize how much time has passed. You could’ve picked up a hobby, but instead kept scrolling like you couldn’t stop. 4. It’s brainrot, and it fries your attention span. All TikTok is is just 5-second short clips that somehow give your brain dopamine that makes it addicting, leaving you feel compelled to watch more. It also increases your screen time. 5. It might be banned anyway and I want it to be, and I have a number of reasons for hating the app. 6. The trends are so concerning. There are trends that cause body image issues or making people insecure, not to mention trends that involve knocking yourself out or passing out. Even worse, some could KILL you. But there will be brain dead people who will attempt these dangerous trends just for likes and comments. 7. So much drama and controversy. There is a new drama or controversy every week or less, and it’s so exhausting to keep up with the toxicity of the app and what goes on. 8. Mindless scrolling that you don’t feel like picking up hobbies anymore 9. People fake disorders and illnesses because it’s “cute” and “quirky” 10. Clout-chasing people who will pull a crazy stunt just for “likes.” And that’s really it-

I decided to look this up, cuz I’m a fellow Gen-z and everyone seems to have it….but honestly it seems kinda toxic. It’s really easy to compare your body, or your goals to other people on there and feel bad about yourself. I just don’t see the appeal other than keeping up with trends…and that’s not somthing that’s that im[ortsnt in my opinion. I hope im right for this. 😭

I got so tired of seeing young girls posting videos of them barley clothed and "posing" in seductive positions. I kept wishing they'd have more respect for themselves. You can still be beautiful without begging old men to like and comment on you. It was just gross and sad. I do agree with the comments. It's absolutely ridiculous. Fighting with people online who are probably over thousands of miles away, what's the point?

Thank you so much for this, i literally searched something like "why you should delete TikTok" and found this awesome video. This is because i know that TikTok is making me a worse human being, my sleeping got worse, my depression and anxiety too. When i go to TikTok i just find myself in a loophone of sadness bc there's a ton of content creators that literally romantacizes ny mental ilnessses. It's also an app where people could easily express their bigotry and hatred. i definitely found my algorithm and day by day TikTok got more addictive but it was just overall making me dumber abd i get mad more easily. I hope i never discored it and used it consistently for 3 years because it ruined me, i lost my spot as an honor student, everything bad in me got worse and the next school year, im going to make an academic comeback:) goodluck to me and thanks to this video:)

I'm 16 right now- here are my reasons for deleting tiktok! 1. I have anxiety and it makes my worries SOOO much worse. 2. I'm plus sized and it makes me insecure seeing all these "perfect" girls, and "glow up tips". The mewing trend, I literally compulsively move my double chin because of an anti bloat trend. 3. It supports the sexualization of younger people. 4. It might be banned anyway. 5. I can find art content, food content, and cat content here on youtube, which makes me feel good!! 6. Tiktok made my ADHD attention span sooo much worse.
