Some TikTok users are noticing a strange issue: reposts are disappearing from their profiles without any warning. Affected users have taken to platforms like Reddit and X to see if they’re the only ones with the issue. Of course, they’re not alone! We’ve come across multiple threads and posts about the issue on both platforms, indicating that it is indeed a bug affecting more than a handful of users.

On Reddit, one affected user described waking up to find all their reposts gone. They tried deleting and reinstalling the app, but it didn’t help. “Still no resolution here,” they wrote a day later after other users chimed in to say they were experiencing the same issue. One commenter suggested that TikTok’s servers might be glitching, noting they could still see the “remove repost” option on some videos, hinting the reposts might not be entirely lost.

Another Redditor shared a more personal perspective, saying they use reposts as a form of creative expression and emotional outlet. “Every day, I organize my reposts to make them aesthetically pleasing and match me. It sounds dramatic, but it’s my coping mechanism, my special outlet,” they wrote. The thought of losing their carefully curated collection was understandably upsetting.

On X, the conversation about this new bug is just as lively. A user posted about their reposts disappearing, only to later realize something even stranger. Some friends could still see the reposts, while others couldn’t. “I was really sad because, low-key, my reposts are sooo awesome,” they added.

The issue appears to have started over the weekend, with reports surfacing as early as two days ago. While some users have had their reposts reappear after refreshing the app multiple times, others haven’t been as lucky. One user claims they could only see the latest reposts. For others, the fix remains elusive.

TikTok hasn’t made any official statement about the problem, leaving users to speculate and troubleshoot on their own. Some are holding out hope that the reposts aren’t truly gone and that the issue will resolve itself. Since this seems like a server-side glitch, I’d suggest just waiting it out. It’s likely that your reposts are not completely wiped out and will show up as usual once TikTok resolves the glitch.
