Veracity is cornerstone to a healthy internet, and it can be very impossible for someone to fact check things on tiktok if their one-stop shop for consuming things and finding information is also tiktok. Corroboration, validation etc. are something I can do (to best efforts) on my computer with applications and websites that help me do this.

Don't get me wrong, I like instagram for the political commentary; but the vibe is different, Instagram is a supplementary source and not a primary one. It's still not a perfect system either, for example Instagram doesn't allow clickable links which can really hamoer organization and spreading important information.
