I might seem a little strange at first but I just really like metaphors.

The servers might be slowly splitting.

Found out they likely made a new server for international users. In the [Xiaohongshu User Privacy Policy](https://agree.xiaohongshu.com/h5/terms/ZXXY20230227002/-1): >In this Policy, "Xiaohongshu" refers to a product distinct from its overseas-operated version, "rednote". Users of Xiaohongshu and rednote are distinguished by their mobile phone numbers. This Policy applies to Xiaohongshu users, specifically: >Users who have registered with a mobile phone number from Chinese Mainland; and >Users who have already registered as Xiaohongshu users using a mobile phone number outside Chinese Mainland before December 8th, 2025. >After December 8th, if you register with a mobile phone number outside Chinese Mainland, you will be a rednote user and the rednote Privacy Policy shall apply. In the [rednote Privacy Policy](https://agree.xiaohongshu.com/h5/terms/ZXXY20251205002/-1): >Specifically, Xiaohongshu App operating in China will be interoperable with rednote Platform; this means that public User Content and profile can be shared and accessed by a user of Xiaohongshu platform, and you can communicate, interact with a user of the Xiaohongshu platform. TLDR: They're putting new foreign users after 12/8/2025 in a new Singapore-based server instead of China server. The new server is interoperable with China's server. EDIT: [Rednote (Intl)](https://agree.xiaohongshu.com/h5/terms/ZXXY20251205003/-1) and [XHS (China)](https://agree.xiaohongshu.com/h5/terms/ZXXY20250119002/-1) have different ToS. EDIT #2 (3/8/2026): changed TLDR because it might be more then just user data.

The Chinese analysis of Americans on this app is really damn insightful

A warm welcome on RedNote! The second pic is a comment from a Chinese girl.

RedNote Account Banned Issue

Anyone else facing this problem??? Is there any way to resolve this issue? My appeal has already been rejected, and customer support told me that they do not have the authority to remove the restriction. Has anyone experienced the same situation and successfully recovered their account? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

How can I verify my account? Help

I'm new to rednote, don't speak chinese and I'm using google translate to get around. I can't seem to find a "send to review" button there, however, nor can I click the "verify real name" at the top options, as it simply doesn't get to another page.
