Digital detox 

 Compare Tik Tok with Instagram 

I think Tik Tok is better than Instagram because some videos are funny . I consider videos with pranks hilarious but some of them are exaggerated. Tik Tok is better than Insta because I can find many types of music.  On Instagram people post mainly pictures . I don't find that interesting.
