Maybe I am not getting it, but to me this long article is about something rather simple: some people got popular on a platform, then the platform was banned, and they cannot easily re-create their following on other similar platforms available.

A similar problem about the platforms themselves: the article mentions that a number of local Indian TikTok-lookalike platforms have been created, but none of them was able to get even a fraction of TikTok popularity.

That said, I was pleased to learn about Savitri and Sanatan Mahto, and enjoyed a few of their videos (on Youtube, ironically).
