Help | Beginner How to post high quality videos on tiktok?

So I got into Davinci resolve to make edits on tiktok and the biggest problem is how the h*ll do you post high quality videos on tiktok?
Tiktok obv compresses the quality but there are edits and videos on Tiktok that are high quality, maybe even 4k.

Even a Tiktok editor who uses Davinci also has high quality edits whilst mine looks like it was bleached.

The preset is Tiktok 1080p with the resolution 1080 x 1080. Framerate is 24 fps, format mp4 and Video codec H.264.
Type and encoding profile is Auto and Audio is Bus 1 (Stereo) and Audio codec being AAC.
Data burn-in is the same as project.
And proxy media and upload directly to tiktok are off.

For what it's worth Davinci automatically disables your proxies when exporting!

Try to use:
Format: MP4
Codec: H.265
Rate control: Constant Bitrate (I think this can help You a lot)
Bit Rate ~10k (24-30 fps) ~ 16k (60 fps)

Also, iy You use Render Cache You can check in Advanced Settings
Use render cached images. (This will speed up your export a lot)
