Currently in 2022, one could argue that Tiktok and Twitter, both social media apps, are absolute essentials in an avid social media user's phone. The greatest thing about these two apps is that they offer you information quickly. The biggest difference between these two apps is the way they give you information. Twitter has been around for longer, so people are more familiar with the layout. Twitter gives you tweets that appear on your timeline. This timeline can be personalized to your interests and the people you follow. This is great at spreading news because you can view multiple tweets within a minute. Tiktok is very innovative because they offer videos. Most Tiktok videos that you see are on your "for you" page, which is personalized based on your likes. This article from W3 Lab states that it is "the fastest growing social media app so far." TikTok currently has about 700 million active users per month, which ranks it in the top 5 most popular social media platforms, and we are sure that it will reach one billion sooner rather than later". Not only does it show how popular the app is, but it also means that more and more people are able to receive news through the app. Both Twitter and Tiktok have taken over the 21st century, and will probably do so for a long time.
