TikTok users don't have as much agency over their FYPs as they think

TikTok users may not have as much control over their For You Pages (FYPs) as they think. The FYP algorithm prioritizes content that keeps users engaged, often showing them videos they're likely to watch. To gain more agency, users must intentionally use the 'not interested' feature to flag unwanted content. This requires constant curation, as the algorithm adapts to user behavior. Users should regularly review and adjust their FYP settings to ensure they see relevant content.
