From TechCrunch:
TikTok has warned of a looming shutdown in just six days, as the Supreme Court is currently weighing the law that would ban the app. So we thought it’s time to take a look at other platforms that may be able to fill the TikTok-shaped hole in our lives
Triller
Triller, which started off as a TikTok competitor, could be a good alternative for people who are mainly interested in the music and dance aspects of TikTok. It’s worth noting that Triller has a much smaller user base than TikTok, so content is somewhat limited.
Triller is already looking to take advantage of the potential TikTok ban in the U.S. The company recently launched a website, SaveMyTikToks.com, to allow TikTok users to save their TikTok videos by transferring them to Triller’s platform, encouraging creators to migrate their content to its app.
Plus, Triller recently hired ex-TikTok exec Sean Kim as its CEO to focus on an overhaul of the app. Kim previously served as TikTok’s head of product from 2019 to 2022, working on things like its “For You” feed, creator monetization, the developer platform, third-party integrations, and more. Triller’s addition of one of TikTok’s top talents could help the platform build out its service to be a better-positioned TikTok alternative.
