Isn't TikTok more like the Instagram of video? I seem to remember early Youtube had a lot of digitised content, like private videos and TV show ripped fragments. With TikTok I see more of a Twitter/Instagram vlog and opinion platform. Youtube's success these days is, somewhat surprisingly, long-form content, often even exceeding an hour.

I'm too old to see just how popular TikTok is and where they could take that with the (supposedly petty young) demographic they have.
