These 10 content categories saw the highest growth on Tiktok in 2020 – don’t worry, “livestock & poultry” had us 😕 confused at first too! Many are a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. No one could go outside, so as a result, social media usage skyrocketed. Consequently, many people now turn exclusively to social media to get news, sports stats, pop culture news, and more. The increased time at home lead to more interest in home-based hobbies. #wefailedatmakingasourdoughstarter
