TikTok is introducing 'Footnotes,' a community-driven feature that allows users to add context to posts, similar to community notes introduced by X in 2021. This initiative aims to foster expertise and enrich discussions using a consensus-driven approach. U.S. users can apply to be contributors, provided they have been on the platform for over six months, are 18 years or older, and have no recent violations of community guidelines. Access for contributing footnotes will open in the upcoming months, reflecting a shift towards collaborative moderation in social networking.
“Footnotes offers a new opportunity for people to share their expertise and add an additional layer of context to the discussion using a consensus-driven approach.”
TikTok's crowd-sourced approach to moderation is inspired by the model introduced by X in 2021 and reflects a growing trend in social media.
