Seems interesting but seems like tiktok dosen't like me. I clicked the link and all i got was some terrible hyper localized content youtube won't even recommend . But it's good to see newcomers to get chance . The search seems awful i search some stuff in english and it showed me unrelated content. How is it dethroning youtube ?

Search on TikTok is really not good. The only way is letting the algorithm do its thing and soon it’ll show you content that interests you (which is content you liked or spent more time watching etc.).

It has no interest in offering you exactly what you want, it wants to maximize your time “hoping” the next video will be very good, which eventually happens (if you sunk enough time).
