I’m not sure what the different incentives are, but I’ve read people say Tik Toks comment section is where it’s at, but I’m almost never inclined to read the comments, which differs from Reddit/hn/threads where I may be more interested in the comments than the original content.

So does Twitter and every other algorithmic social network.

Hacker News also does shadowbanning.

This post is about Instagram, not TikTok.
