How is TikTok an extension of the ringtone era?

TikTok has developed into it's own thing now. You can distinguish it from Vine and I don't get how it relates to the ringtone era.

The ringtone era is hardly comparable to Tik Tok. The ringtone era was a relatively small movement among the rap community mostly confined to the US. Tik Tok is a worldwide phenomenon that's shaping up global pop culture in few ways other sites did before.
Vine is more comparable but again it was so shortlived that it barely had the influence Tik Tok today has.

The other day i was thinking about how tiktok is basically YouTube in 2011. I wonder if it will "mellow out" like YouTube did

I feel like classic YouTube(2006-2013) is the best to compare TikTok. There are some TikTok videos that have the spirit of Vine.

Vine was huge in the mid-2010s, but it never had the major global impact that TikTok had in about 3 years' time (ever since fall 2018). By its end, Vine had over 200 million active users. TikTok has over a BILLION monthly users right now.
Personally, I would compare the impact of TikTok in 2019-present more to Facebook in the early 2010s, but faster.
I don't get the ringtone era comparison except for maybe the small music samples?

All I know if TikTok existed in 2007 this would definitely be a tiktok dance. I knew what this was months before I knew who Soulja Boy was.

Oh god, on my part of the world there was a very cringy dance fad in 2007 that could become far more widespread had TikTok been around. The now prehistoric cellphone technology of back then definitely made us dodge a bullet.

For me tiktok is more comparable to the videos people used to make on their webcam to put on YouTube or Facebook circa 2009. Even though tiktok became famous through the dancing, a la musical.ly, talk videos are imo what have sustained it and propelled it to the level it is now at. The problem with Vine was that it was pure comedy, and while the format was effective for that, it didn't allow for substantial enough content to make the same impact.
