More than “mildly infuriating”, this is deeply depressing.

(And seeing TikTok two times there don’t make things better…)

    Isn’t tiktok free? Why would you need a lite version. Is it for old phones that can’t run much?

      Yes, is for old phones and such. A mutual told me the main app is bad optimized, and a lot of smartphone here are very VERY old. Mine have like 5 years or so, I think that’s like 5 decades in more “develop” countries.

      Third-world shenanigans, you know.

      If it’s anything like Facebook lite, it’s literally a wrapper for the website. Not even a proper app. Usually a worse experience than using a real browser, but the main apps are usually so bad that people with older phones put up with the lite “apps”.
