Heartbroken TikTokers are going cuckoo.
Users of the now defunct social app nationwide are mourning its loss early Sunday, after the app went dark for its 170 million American users in the face of a legal US ban.
“ITS GONE TIKTOK IS GONE,” one user posted to X with a gif of someone nervously smoking.
The online freak out began after TikTok went dark in the US before 11 p.m., and users were greeted with a message that said: “Sorry TikTok isn’t available right now” and the site was otherwise unusable.
“Tiktok is gone and im already having withdrawals,” another user posted.
“It’s been 15 minutes and I’m already going through TikTok withdraws,” a podcaster with more than 1.8 followers said. “THIS IS A CRIME.”
“TIKTOK IS GONE NOOOOO,” another user posted.
Before it went down, users began to express heartbreak and #SaveTikTok trended.
