Not sure whether the video that get share out of TikTok are the ones average user make. For many it's just fun filters, big music library and a way to share video with friends. I doubt teenager randomly dancing on a music, or sharing pics of their horse-riding lessons try to make money on-it.
Not sure why you would need a seperate platform for such kind of videos though. You can use Mastodon etc. perfectly fine for this kind of stuff.
But I think that is not why the majority use TikTok. Tiktok is more like those TV channels that show an endless number of funny bloopers and cooking shows, and those need semi-professional makers and curators that want to be paid for their work.
