YouTube steals from TikTok
YouTube is a new name in this slideshow, and that’s because YouTube isn’t really a “social media” website, no matter how hard it tries to market itself as such. But when a video platform as revolutionary as TikTok came along, YouTube wanted its piece of the pie and launched YouTube Shorts in the U.S. in March 2021.
YouTube Shorts actually makes a little bit of sense since YouTube has always been a pioneer in digital video sharing. It’s just a shame that the interface looks exactly like TikTok. No matter, because YouTube Shorts apparently rakes in a big 1.5 billion views per month, besting TikTok .
