As you’re stuck at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, here are a few things that you can do on TikTok to keep you going and the boredom at bay.
No, social distancing doesn’t mean “distance yourself from social media.” It means “keep a distance from the people around you” so that you don’t catch the ‘rona. Social media will be your primary method of socializing in this challenging time, but you’ll need to make sure you give yourself some variety.
In a post last week, TikTok listed several things you could do on the app to keep yourself busy – and productive. Like, picking up a new hobby, or discovering a great workout routine. If you already create content for TikTok, how about teaching people something new and useful, or helping them stay cheerful?
