    I’m still amazed that people like short-form video in the first place, but if TikTok exits the US market, which it sounds like they may, I suppose it’d be better to have a company enter the market. Don’t really want the number of competitors to keep shrinking, if you’re a consumer of that content.

      Hopefully, they will learn to unionize at some point.
