Did you see the TikTok developer guidelines?
There you have an anchor as a button, right in the official documentation! 😂

Well this is the company that actively suppressed disabled users.

What makes it even worse is that there is an <a> element that doesn't even have an href for "login". That means it isn't focusable (something I missed in my rant ironically!)...not that anything on that page has focus indicators....oh it hurts me so much, why did you do this, I thought we were friends! 🤣
