Douyin was launched in China in 2016, and it quickly gained popularity as a short-form video-sharing platform. TikTok, on the other hand, was launched in 2018 for international markets. Although they're owned by the same company, ByteDance, they have distinct features and content moderation policies.
So, what do players actually do on Douyin or TikTok? They create and share short-form videos that can range from 15 seconds to 60 seconds. These videos can be about anything, from funny skits and dance challenges to educational content and product reviews. Users can also interact with each other through comments, likes, and duets.
