I was limited and then fully banned. Is there any hope on appealing?

Is there any hope of appealing or should I just give up and make a new account?
Has anyone had luck on being unbanned?
How long do appeals usually take?

Context below:

I wanted some advice as I loved browsing XHS. I am a foreign user (UK).

I was first semi-banned because of verification reasons and this happened soon after making my first comment.

I verified my passport and then sent an appeal - it has been a couple of days as I did this in April. I hadn’t received any response and it just says 1-3 days or wait 7 days. I couldn’t post any comments but could still like things.

Now today (late May), I saw a new message and I am fully banned - all my likes/favourites are gone (I liked a lot of things related to travel to China. I would love these back as I am going to visit this year. I also liked a lot of useful tutorials).

This new permanent ban notice mentions that I promoted gambling? I don’t think I did this but maybe one of my english comments was misunderstood. I haven’t made a new comment since the initial semi-ban.

Is there any hope with appealing?

? If you think you were not an agent of spreading gambling message then, yes

I am also from the UK, got passport verified first before posting anything. Got banned permanently a few months back. Then I deleted my most recent post then appealed, then I am unbanned and fine since.

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.
