I haven’t fallen into the TikTok rabbit hole, just yet

I feel I’m almost too old for Instagram, TikTok seems really far fetched. I mean, if 14-year old Niece is really into it — as the majority of teenagers are — I’m not sure it’s something apt to her uncle. In addition, let’s be honest, I don’t have any particular good dance moves nor I’m skilled in telling jokes or doing sketch comedy: How am I supposed to contribute to the TikTok community?
