How to rank higher on TikTok 👀

I’ll say it—it’s a bit too quiet in the social media world recently. Yes, we have new features. Yes, we have apps stealing other app’s features (I’m speaking to you TikTok). But … where’s the drama? Where’s the intrigue? When are Musk and Zuck actually going to fight?

Perhaps I’m just watching too much reality TV this week. 🙃

Until then, your weekly round-up is here! We’ve got resurrected features, new fonts, and the first ads on Threads (sad!). Let’s get into it.

Well, that didn’t take too long now, did it?

Last week, TikTok released a new option that looked very, very familiar. The new feature, called “Thought” is an exact replica of Instagram Notes.

Thoughts are displayed as a speech bubble inside DMs and on your TikTok profile image.

It seems because Notes is doing so well with the youngins on Instagram, TikTok couldn’t let that slide and needed to steal the idea as well.

Will you be using it, or do you find it a silly feature to steal?

• Poking is back—Facebook is now letting Facebook Pages poke their followers. Weird!
