The flip side, as someone that prefers long-form video, is that TikTok tends to lack a lot of context. Is the leak coming from a pipe that is supposed to have teflon tape around the threads or not? Do you need to shut off the water main in case the pipe comes loose? How do you do that? What if the pipe needs to be re-soldered? Do they go ever when/how to do that in a TikTok?

TikTok is information dense, but only if you already know exactly what you're looking for. My experience is that people will spend half an hour watching 30 TikToks to get the same information as a good 10 minute YouTube video.
