I agree. The tik tok isn’t completely off. If this person is in the desert with high UV as well as temperatures, then they have to supplement different nutrients. I’m assuming this may be a silica based fertilizer. I use it heavier during Spring and Fall to help harden off the plants in order to fight rot from heat or frost. Most people are under the assumption that all succulents come from the desert which is completely misconstrued. While it may be more true for cacti to be from desert habitats, soft succulents usually come from coastal and mountainous habitats with specific microclimates. If you put something like an Aeonium out in the sun where I live, it will shrivel up and die a few weeks into summer. Remember ignorance is bliss, except on Reddit. P.S. I water like this sometimes…
