They chose the app specifically because its chinese, they still have every other tiktok clone, like clapper (lol), snapchat spotlight, youtube shorts and instagram reels.
Whatever the reason, navigating that is still more complicated than navigating Lemmy or Mastodon
I agree, but thats why they chose it.
It's mire simple because they have actual designers that design the app to users to use, so it's not that much difficult to navigate, with all the icons and familiar patterns.
Yeah, it's amazing the things you can do with UX when your platform takes in enough money that you can support a UI/UX team.
~~don't ask where that money came from or why kthx~~
(some oss projects outright decline help from actual designers by the way)
