Ever since 2018, PewDiePie has been quite vocal about his distaste for TikTok, claiming that the platform initially confused him before thanking it for merging with Music.aly instead of YouTube. That\u2019s not all; Kjellberg also claimed there was \u201cno actual content left\u201d on the app, stating \u201cIt\u2019s just kids trolling each other. \u2026at this point, no one is making actual TikTok videos.\u201d A few years later, Kjellberg seems to have changed his mind about the site somewhat, according to a video he uploaded on April 20, 2021, where he said \u201cat least it\u2019s better than Twitter, right?\u201d Although there were a few duds in his TikTok compilation, he admitted that the platform does have some neat videos after watching a clip of a surfer pulling off some moves beneath an ice-covered lake. \u201cThere are some cool TikToks,\u201d the YouTuber admitted with a smile. \u201cMy mind is changing slowly. I\u2019m opening up. I like it! \u2026some TikToks are genuinely so funny.\u201d That\u2019s not all; the YouTube king also revealed that he\u2019d gotten inspired to play a game on his channel due to a TikTok that recommended \u201cBefore Your Eyes\u201d \u2014 an interactive experience that changes the environment every time a player blinks. \u201cI\u2019m officially not a TikTok hater,\u201d PewDiePie joked. \u201cJust because of this one TikTok that helped me find a cool game.\u201d While TikTok might not be his favorite cup of tea, it\u2019s hard to argue that the platform doesn\u2019t have quite a few gems \u2014 which include everything from a songwriter who turns Facebook Market deals gone sour into hilarious tunes and even a cat owner who takes elaborate spa days with his pets. It seems that PewDiePie has turned a new leaf regarding the internet\u2019s most popular short-form video app\u2026 although it doesn\u2019t look like it\u2019s trumping YouTube for him anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PewDiePie explains why his opinion of TikTok has changed: \u201cI like it\u201d YouTube: PewDiePieYouTube star Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg has notoriously not been a fan of popular mobile video platform TikTok \u2014 but now, he claims his opinion on the viral app is changing for the better.
