View MoreTikTok image comments not showing at all in my country(and itβs not intentional)
I want to check if this is just happening here or if other people are dealing with it too For around half a year now, image comments on TikTok are basically broken in my country. The feature exists and you can post images in comments with no issue, but when you try to view them they do not appear at all. Not like a blank image or something loading forever, the entire comment just does not exist on your side. It is either completely missing or shows as unavailable comment. You would not even know someone posted an image unless someone told you. This is not just me. Friends and family all have the same problem on different phones and accounts. The weirdest part is that if you use a VPN to the US and open TikTok, everything suddenly works and you can see all the image comments normally. So it feels like the feature is only half working here. You can upload images but cannot actually see them. Is anyone else having this issue in their country or is it just something broken here that never got fixed
Someone sent a message, but the message is no longer there? Doesnβt show that a message was unsent
Got a few messages from a friend. I opened them and replied to them about an hour later, then those messages from the friend were no longer able to be seen. The message thread does not say that they were unsent like it typically does. Any idea how/why this happened?
ManyChat alternative - I switched tools for my Instagram and WhatsApp DMs and the AI actually understands my customers. 3 month update.
The best ManyChat alternative if you want a bot that actually answers questions (not just triggers keyword flows) is one trained on your own business data. Been using this approach for 3 months now. Here's the honest comparison. I used ManyChat for about a year. It's good at specific things, I want to be clear about that. The comment-to-DM stuff works great. "Comment INFO to get the link" type automations. That's genuinely useful. The problem was real questions. Someone would DM asking something specific about a product and the bot would either send a random scripted reply or just say someone will get back to you. Which is useless. I was spending time maintaining the flows instead of them actually working. **what I switched to** Chatbase. You train it on your actual business content, website, product descriptions, FAQ, policies, whatever you have. Then it answers questions in plain language because it's reading from real data not matching keywords. Connected it to Instagram and WhatsApp through the integrations. Both took about 2 minutes. **the actual difference day to day** Before: customer asks "do you have the burgundy one in a size 8?" Bot sends a generic reply that doesn't answer the question. Customer bounces. Now: same question. Bot reads the product page data and answers accurately. Customer either buys or asks a follow up. It handles questions it's never seen before because it's reasoning from the training data. That's the thing keyword flows can't do. **where ManyChat is still better, honestly** Comment automation and broadcast messages. If you want to DM blast your audience or automate "comment DISCOUNT to get a code," ManyChat is the tool for that. Chatbase doesn't do comment triggers. Complex multi-step marketing funnels with branching logic, also ManyChat. I'm not saying ManyChat is bad. It's just built for different things. **numbers after 3 months** With ManyChat I was handling maybe 30-40% of DMs automatically because flows only covered questions I'd specifically anticipated. With Chatbase it's closer to 65-70%. The AI fills in the gaps. It's not perfect, but its doing the job for me imo The remaining 30% I handle myself. Complex stuff, complaints, anything that actually needs a person. I'd handle those anyway. Setup for Chatbase was about 30 minutes. Building out proper ManyChat flows took me a full day originally. Happy to answer questions if anyone's trying to decide between them.
Is social media becoming more about distribution than content quality?
It feels like even average content can perform well if itβs pushed correctly, while genuinely good content sometimes gets ignored. Between algorithms, timing, and trends, it almost seems like how you distribute matters more than what you create. Curious what people here think, is content quality still the main driver, or has distribution taken over?
