You know how soda tastes weird when you haven’t had sugary beverages for a couple weeks? Maybe it’s something like that. More likely is that TikTok doesn’t want any negative PR right now.

TikTok thanked Trump for saving TikTok from the ban he said in motion, which was huge negative PR for zero gain. And this isn't just "no longer being used to TikTok after a few days":

> "I've never seen this before, and it is still there. It says 'sharing is limited to one chat at a time,'" said Loller, who has 1.3 million followers.

> "I tried to post this six times to TikTok and it wouldn’t let me because of censorship, here’s (to) hoping it works here," Cline said. The video referenced Trump's response to Episcopal Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde after she asked him, at an inaugural prayer service at Washington's National Cathedral, to show mercy on people who are "scared."

> Danisha Carter, 27, said her account, which has 2 million followers, was permanently suspended shortly after TikTok went dark on Saturday. She was told it was due to "multiple policy violations" when she tried to log in after the ban was lifted.

Many creators have been leaving TT since even prior to the ban.
