Account restricted for some reason?

I keep getting notifications that my account is restricted, and thus I cannot do certain things for whatever reason. I haven't posted anything against the TOS, I haven't commented on any posts, and I don't understand why this has happened. I have tried to find a way to communicate this problem with customer service but cannot seem to do so? It won't accept my phone number (as I am from the US) and I don't want to verify with my passport as it is the only other option it seems. Is there anything I can do? Or should I give up, delete the account and make another? (Would that get banned as well?)

They restricted me, too. I posted 2 funny pictures and liked 10 posts. I was banned on my first account where I had over 9,000 likes and very few posts were political and only US politics. I used my passport to get verified. I appealed but they would only say I was banned and not why. My new account, with a different phone number and name, was, as I said, almost immediately restricted. Kinda guessing they don't want US accounts? Not sure.

rednote got punished by party this week for lacking of governance on hot topic. i guess that's why they put more restrictions recently.

I'm also recently banned. Folks are trying skylight social. If more people get on the app, it will be pretty similar to tiktok.

Same happened to me as well. I can’t even text my Chinese friend anymore 😞

I had the same thing happen to me after a few months of using the app with no problem. Now I can’t join new groups or even leave comments! The only thing I can think of is sometimes I use a VPN that’s set to Canada, which is not where I live. Maybe it detected a difference in location and got sketched out. I’m really distraught over this though 😭

I also got that. Can't even verify myself as I don't have a resident ID and have no idea how to fix it. I just logged on back after like 7 months of not being on RedNote :(

If anyone has a solution, I will gladly take it

Oh so it’s not just me then. Bloody hell this is annoying. It feels like they are trying to lock international users out.

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.
