I like TikTok ads. I am not a material person, so I am generally hard to shop for. But since TikTok came out, I am able to provide a list for people of cool gadgets and stuff that aren't too expensive. Do I like any other ads? No...

    Interesting. I have not had that experience, on Tiktok or elsewhere. I do have a similar experience with tech reviewers' videos on Youtube, though. Albeit not the sponsored ones.

    Yeah they earn a commission, so it really incentivizes them to find products to promote that people actually want.

    The only ones I hate, are the ones where they pretend to be a regular video and then turns into an ad 3 minutes in.

    And this isn't an endorsement of Tiktok, just the advertising model.
