A new TikTok “clone” is gaining popularity with young users.Zynn, which launched at the beginning of May, is almost a “button-for-button clone” of TikTok—but it pays users to sign up to watch their short-form videos. The app has quickly become the number one free app on Apple’s App Store and Google’s Play Store, partly thanks to a referral program that also pays users when they get friends to sign up. Kuaishou, the company that owns Zynn, runs one of the biggest video apps in China, and makes money by selling ads as long as it is able to bring in more money than it pays out. (The Verge, Forbes)
