American TikTokers<\/a><\/strong> managed to do something very few people in history have ever achieved this weekend: they were able to witness what people said about them at their own funeral. <\/p>\n

When the U.S. ban went into effect on Sunday, Jan. 19, after a long, laborious legal battle, the world assumed that was it for American-made content on the app for good \u2014 or, at the very least, for a few weeks. As it turned out, Donald Trump turned the big TikTok switch<\/a> in the White House back on before he was even inaugurated. The result was a ban that lasted a matter of hours. <\/p>\n

And yet we didn’t realize it was going to be such a short goodbye, so there was an intense outpouring of emotion on both sides. American users flocked to other platforms like X to plead with their international friends to screenshare TikTok content with them so they could get their fix. But what about those left on TikTok itself? How did they react to those few hours without any U.S. users on the site? Well, in true TikTok style, the results were… varied, to say the least. <\/p>\n

For starters, some paid homage to their fallen star-spangled brethren by keeping the American spirit alive. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m genuinely sorry your government cares more about that ZUCC money than your freedom. I know we British people say some stuff about Americans sometimes, but tbh all the Americans I\u2019ve met has been cool and nice as hell. Y\u2019all deserve better #freebird<\/a> #lynardskynard<\/a> #banjo<\/a> #tiktokban<\/a> #fyp<\/a> <\/p>\n
