REDnote is good actually.

I am not even from the United States, tho TikTok is banned here in India too (but I haven't used it before). So basically, I just installed this app just because people here in Reddit and everywhere else were talking about this, so I decided to gave it a try. First, I checked it this app was banned in India (the Indian Government banned 51 Chinese apps including WeChat, Tiktok and even Capcut, so I wasn't sure about this app too). Then I noticed it wasn't banned! I downloaded it, and the first things I noticed are that there is no brainrot here, people are very friendly and they post here about their lifestyles and all. This had been the app that I have been looking for.

I agree with you.

Many videos on Rednote are longer. There are so many Chinese artists doing jewels, painting, statues, frescos, and different things.

Their travel blogging is amazing. I love the music they choose and the way their traditional instruments sound.

The translation in the updated version is very smart.

I believe REDnote recommendation system is better than TikTok’s. It doesn’t focus on gathering traffic around a single person; instead, it concentrates on the content itself. Unlike TikTok, which tends to push content that keeps users passive or numbed, REDnote focuses more on the value and relevance of the content.

Yeah I didn't know about this app before but I'll keep using it now that I do, even if Tiktok stays

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.
