Our first video and photo sharing platform is no other than the fast growing TikTok also known as Douyin in China where it is based and owned by ByteDance LTD.

WhatsApp messenger or simply WhatsApp is a free social media messaging platform owned by Meta Platforms. As of 2022, it is the most popular messaging platform with roughly 2 billion monthly users worldwide.
While WhatsApp is a messenger application, it allows you to share and comment on videos and photos on messages as well as the status function. To comment on pictures shared on WhatsApp, you must create an account using my personal mobile number, which you will use to engage other users.
Pinterest is an image sharing and social media service designed to enable posting, saving and discovery of information on the internet using images, and on a smaller scale, animated GIFs and videos, as pinboards. (Wikipedia)
Pinterest also allows you to discover new interests and share them with others online. To post, view and comment on pictures on Pinterest, you need to set up an account using your Google, Microsoft or other email accounts.
Tumblr
Tumblr is a social networking platform that allows users to post photos, GIFS, and videos. The platform allows you to follow other bloggers’ posts. To comment on pictures, create a Tumblr account.

Types of comments and commenters
The one-word commenter
The one word commenter, as the name suggests, literally comments on one word. With little effort put into commenting, you will find him or her writing one-word sentences in the comment section, such as funny, lame, cool, nice, or cringe.
While most content creators wish they comment more, any form of engagement is good engagement.
The article writer.
The article writer has some basic or in-depth knowledge about the picture and anything concerning it. He or she takes the commenting on the picture as an opportunity to show the world what they know. Most of the time, this is usually unsolicited advice, but hey, they can also be educative, informative and interesting to read.
To find the article writer, look out for comments with the read more button.
The antagonist
As the title says, this person actively opposes the picture content and is hostile to the content creator. In a nutshell, that is an antagonist for you. He or she has no kind words for you and your content.
You will find comments such as “ugly photo”, or “nobody even likes your picture” or “this photo was just a total waste of time.” Please do not be an antagonist in the comment section. If the content does not please you, kindly give your opinion politely.
The self-advancing commenter
As the name suggests, this commenter is only in the comment section, for one thing, to promote themselves or their products. It is not uncommon to find comments such as “watch my latest video on…” “give me a like” or even “here is a link to my product.”
Their comments have nothing to do with the content of the picture. However, we appreciate them for filling up the comment section.
The conflict starter
The conflict starter starts conflicts. As simple as that. He or she comments, on controversial, provocative or divisive things that inevitably start conflicts since everyone wants to counter their opinion and give their two senses.
The funny thing about the war starter is that he does not engage in the conflict but sits back, relaxes and watches the conflict going on, probably while having some popcorn.
Other commenters include the funny guy, the commenter to comments and the editor.
What not to comment on videos
Insults
Maintaining decorum on your social comments is important as insults can lead to you being blocked from the content material, receiving warnings from the social media platform or risk having your account disabled meaning you cannot view, watch or comment on other photos ever again.
If this reason is not sufficient, avoid insults, as they are a sign of disrespect and can cause unwarranted emotional harm.
Derogatory remarks concerning other people.
Do not for any reason comment with derogatory remarks concerning the appearance and bodies of other people as this may cause significant damage not only to their emotions but also to mental health.
Derogatory comments only show a lack of respect, hostility, and disregard for others.
Discriminating remarks on race, gender or orientation
We understand that different people have views and opinions. This being said, no one may discriminate against another according to their race, gender or orientation. It is also important to note that such comments can warrant legal action and put you in deep trouble with law enforcement organs. Respect others as you would wish to be respected.
