    How would you even know it’s educational and real content?

    Due to the platforms design, fake, sensational, and “real” looking content is more pushed than truly real/educational content.

      Well if you’re genuinely interested here’s an account I enjoy a lot: https://www.tiktok.com/@redwoodsrising

      I’m not sure of his exact title but he works for Redwoods Rising and talks about lots of redwood tree facts I didn’t know I needed. He also educates about the local native people and their impact/contributions on the forest. Most of his videos are like 2-5 minutes. May sound short but I honestly get exhausted watching full length documentaries that often go for some kind of dramatic approach. I just wanna learn about cool stuff, I’m not usually in it for anything else.

      Theresa also lots of people who work with/educate about different animals, actually funny comedy skits, and lots of niche shitposts for basically whatever you’re into.

      You gotta give it a little bit of time for the algorithm to curate to you but once it does it’s actually really high quality content imo. At the very least it’s nice seeing actual original content from people who have interesting passions/jobs versus people just linking articles/“TIL” style posts.
