I am Chinese and have been focusing on Xiaohongshu operations for many years. I have several accounts with tens of thousands of followers, but I see that many foreign friends encounter many difficulties when using Xiaohongshu. I want to create a manual and would like to hear about the problems you face. What do you most hope to see in the manual?
Ask me anything here!
How do we get beyond being fed “welcome TikTok refugees” posts into actual Chinese content?
How do I stop seeing American politics stuff on my feed?
Walk us through the hashtags we should use 🙏
Is there a way to search for different music to add on videos? And best ways to influence the algorithm, particularly to show newer content and stop pushing week old Tik Tok refugee content from people who are back on Tik tok now and not posting on xiaohongshu. Thank you if you make a guide! I would be interested.
Would asking for English translations/subtitles be considered rude? A lot of people I watch artists/animators I really love but I sometimes can’t understand what they’re saying｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡
I hear it does things either than the main feed. Where are the other things?
Where is the mute button? Some videos I like to watch mute, others, I want to hear. Thanks.
what exactly to avoid to prevent being banned
how to download videos from rednote
Okay, mine is the dumbest one...
How in the hell do I post a comment? It needs my phone number but there's no American area codes. I know other Americans have figured it out, but I'm lost.
FWIW, the only social media I've had in 10 years is reddit, so I'm quite out of touch with the technology. I just want to see what all the hubbub is about.
Edit: I have Google translator so I've got the English to Chinese part down. Unless that's wrong to?
So you’re thinking about switching (or at least dabbling) from TikTok to **Rednote** (aka Xiaohongshu)? Here’s a quick rundown on what to expect and how to adapt: 1. **Different Vibe** * **TikTok** is all about short, snappy videos—dances, trends, and memes. * **Rednote** leans more toward lifestyle tips, product reviews, and personal stories. Think mini-blogs rather than just quick clips. 2. **Less is More—or Is It?** * On **TikTok**, you can go viral with a 15-second masterpiece. * On **Rednote**, people actually read captions and appreciate detailed posts. Don’t be afraid to write a bit more and share personal insights. 3. **Engage with the Community** * Responding to comments is key on both platforms, but **Rednote** users expect a friendlier, more helpful approach. Focus on real interaction rather than just racking up views. 4. **Use Relevant Hashtags & Keywords** * **TikTok** hashtags can be trendy and fleeting. * **Rednote** hashtags and keywords should be more targeted, especially if you’re reviewing products or sharing how-to tips. 5. **Be Ready for Culture Shifts** * The **Rednote** audience often loves beauty, travel, fashion, and “real-life” hacks. * If you’re pivoting from dance challenges, consider experimenting with lifestyle or review content to fit the platform’s style. 6. **Quality Over Quantity** * While **TikTok** can reward frequent posting, **Rednote** might favor fewer, well-thought-out posts that really resonate. High-quality visuals and genuine storytelling go a long way. Got questions about Rednote? Drop ’em below—always happy to help a fellow content creator make the jump!
Why exactly? You and me know why America is banning tiktok... They can't control the narrative their like they do with Facebook or Instagram YouTube. etc The genocide in Gaza was being shown in its full without any kind of censorship... And daddy israel doesn't like that so the AIPAC who's holding the American politicians by the balls... Forced them into banning the app.... It's not about privacy or any of that.... Remember edward Snowden.? I rest my case.
Say it with me....because he and his oligarch buddies are getting worried Americans are waking up to the truth about the anti-China propaganda BS in Red Note and will either demand better conditions or go full socialist.
