I’m quitting this app now—there’s nothing nutritious here.

While Americans complain about how bad their lives are, often exaggerating to get attention, Chinese people tend to hide their problems and feel content seeing competitors struggle, which makes them feel better about themselves.

Let’s look at the situation: If you mention that many Americans aren’t living with food shortages, hunger, or selling plasma, you’ll get attacked by American users.

If you say America isn’t that bad, and try to tell them the fact as plasma is not whole blood, you’ll also get attacked by Chinese users.

So now the general image of America among Chinese, based on many of their comments, is that Americans are starving and have to sell blood (they literally mean whole blood) just to eat.

And if you point out any issues in China, you’ll face a flood of negative, offensive,racist comments, often filled with conspiracy theories.

It’s all so ridiculous and hilarious at the same time!

I think you're actually confusing the purpose of the app.

It's a Lifestyle app. Meant for positivity and inspiration and creativity. It was not originally meant for dialogue.

I'm going to continue to use it for it's intended purpose. A light hearted place of positivity and inspiration from the daily drag of life.

There are people on this app that still believe in the Uyghur genocide narrative... 🤷

What else is ridiculous is a yr old account coming out to post twice in its lifetime and this is one of them lol. Good for you though.

You just loud minorities who wanna engage the topics you mentions. Nowadays, it is more lifestyle and entertainment. Especially livestream are back to normal. Both side are planing traveling trips to each other too. REDnote is back to it's usual form.

I said this in a post on here last week, which someone took issue with and argued with me (though we ended our argument amiably): "so long as there is censorship, there can be no 'even exchange.'"

It should be obvious to many that this is the wisest way to look at this current cultural intercourse. But people will believe what they want to believe, because that's Humanity 101. Been like that for eons.

As for me, personally, because I understand that the exchange cannot possibly be fair (there is a narrative elephant in the room and it must be fed in silence), I have no problem being on the app and will continue to use it. While I do think this will go down as a historical moment in the brief history of social media, I never thought for once that XHS allowed for candid discussions. TikTok and IG barely do, either, with how loud everyone is, like chicks in a nest, squawking, all wanting to be fed the most, even if the others die.

Making the Jump from TikTok to Rednote(Xiaohongshu)? Here’s What You Need to Know

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!

The ban isn't really about privacy concerns

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.

Y'all know why Trump suddenly became "pro-TikTok" right?

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.
