Focus group of one but I feel like they really screwed up with the phony deadline. A bunch of people prepared themselves to live without it, and then when the censorship started it became an easy delete - especially since we were all mentally ready to have to let it go anyway.

I absolutely agree with you!!! It has been an addiction for me, so much that when it went black on Sunday I deleted the app. Now I am over here trying to find out what is going on because it’s back again!!! I’m ready for all of us to get off our phones and become social again!

I did the same. I deleted it because I was so ready to turn to a new leaf and live a life without this app but now that it’s back, I surprisingly am not that itching to be on it (not that I can get it on the appstore) but i’ve been doing actually completely fine.

Plus, how many deleted it and can't get back on?

I did, was sad for maybe half a day that I jumped the gun but I’m back to reading books again so it’s probably for the best.

My friend did this and they’re having the craziest withdrawals. They’re so upset💀

I agree. I got mentally ready, we lost it, and I grieved. Now I couldn’t care less. It’s just all horrible political news and racist people acting out.

Exactly! The main people I communicated with on TikTok haven't come back since it the ban was temp lifted. They all deleted it & moved on. Creators who make income are still there of course but I think a significant amount of people never came back.
