TikTok has revolutionized the way people consume and share information. Now a startup called Vylo wants to take the short video format a step further and lets users share their thoughts about sports, current affairs, and other categories of news by filming themselves talking.

My first reaction to the idea was: why does one need to share news comments via video clips? Can’t it just happen in the text-based comment section of The New York Times or other news websites?
