TikTok algorithm එක reverse engineer කරපු එක නම් නියම වැඩක්

You can't gain anything meaningful by knowing their alogrithm. For example, X.com open sourced their algorithm, nobody cared.

ඇත්ත බං. X එක open source කලේ code එක විතරයි, model weights එකයි data එකයි නෑ. ඒ දෙක නැතුව algorithm එකෙන් වැඩක් නෑ, engine එක තියෙනවා petrol නෑ වගේ

අනික tweet එක දාලා තියෙන්නේ a0.dev එකේ කෙනෙක්, ඒක AI app builder එකක්. ඉතින් මේක TikTok clone එකක් හදපු demo එකක් වෙන්න ඕන, ඇත්ත algorithm එක නෙවෙයි. TikTok ranking එක දුවන්නේ එයාලගේ servers වල, පිටින් ඉඳන් reverse engineer කරන්න බෑ මචං.

Content දාන අයට වැදගත් වෙන්නේ signals ටික: watch time, video එක අන්තිම වෙනකම් බලනවද, ආයේ බලනවද, share කරනවද. මුල් තත්පර 2-3 hook එක හරි නම් බාගයක් වැඩ ඉවරයි

මුල් තත්පර 2-3 hook එක හරි නම් බාගයක් වැඩ ඉවරයි

this was known for ages bro, all platforms works this way, not only for tiktok, but youtube, facebook etc too.

ඇත්ත බං, අලුත් දෙයක් නෙවෙයි. ඒත් ගොඩක් අය තාම හිතන් ඉන්නේ hashtag ගහලා viral වෙන්න පුළුවන් කියලා ඒ නිසා ආයෙත් කියන එකේ වරදක් නෑ.

Can you please explain this? What is a hook?

Same thing with YouTube. It’s scary how it knows whether I’m driving, working out, or just enjoying a drink.

Hook = the first 2-3 seconds of the video, the part that decides if someone stops scrolling or swipes away. Platforms check whether people stay past that point, so it carries a lot of weight. Common hooks: show the result first (finished dish, before/after), ask a question people want answered, or say something bold or unexpected. Basically don't waste the first seconds on "hi guys, today I'm going to..."

This is an antient concept used in all sort of content delivery systems like books, essays, presentations etc. If you have ever learnt how to write essays, how to do presentation etc, you may have studied these concepts. We have to start any content delivery with a very interesting fact, in a essay, this is first couple of sentences, in a presentation this is first 30 second or so.

ඇත්ත බං essay එකේ first sentence එකේ ඉඳන් presentation එකේ first 30s වෙනකන් ඔක්කොම same hook concept එක. වෙනස තියෙන්නේ TikTok එකේ ඒ window එක තත්පර 2-3 කට හැකිලිලා තියෙන එක විතරයි අලුත් දේ කියන්නේ algorithm එක ඒක watch time, swipe-away rate වලින් හැම video එකකටම live measure කරන එක.
