Thank you for mentioning my small post, much appreciated! Also so that was a very good article....I tested Tik Tok a lot and found many things... duets like you said work very well but things like politics or serious opinions about something do not work.
For Example I had a meme video about Brexit exact 1 day after the official ...exit.. so the video got 15.4 k views n 5 hours but got deleted. This was a very good lesson for me ... On Tik Tok works PG jokes and songs, opinions work too but they have to be very mild.
And last detail...there is the thing with the traking....now many CEOs are saying that Tik Tok app is tracking us ( camera) but to be honest this is not the only app that does this...most of them do this ..most of them use our data.
Still I believe that Tik Tok can help us and even Steemit .
Just make videos...be funny...or be the opposite...
As I understand there is a way to monetize your videos...after having 1k followers and start to do live video.
There is this diamond that can be exchanged to usd.... but I did not test this yet ...as soon as I test this feature I will write more about the subject.
Once again very good article man and I wish you all the best!
