TikTok Is Shutting Down its $2 Billion Creator Fund::TikTok’s controversial creator fund allowed short-form content creators to earn money for their videos. The program will end in December.
This kills the app.
Finally.
I don’t think so. With the tiktok shop, this move will push creators to shill (mostly) crappy products in order to make money. Or potentially transition to something like Patreon, but I’m not sure if that’s even doable with short form content.
It will create a content creation vacuum, which will be filled by the next big thing.
I’m not sure it’ll create a vacuum, though. Sure, some creators will leave but overall I think the content will just decrease in quality as the main motivating factor shifts from actual good content to pushing viewers into other methods of monetization.
It’s only going to kill shorter videos, the longest ones will still be eligible to the creation find.
Wdym kills. Retards there donate to people on live stream writing their names in fucking notepad.exe
I got too excited when I saw the first half of the headline. :P
