Is foreign users now throttled due to the separation between xiaohongshu and rednote?

I saw this updated Terms of Service saying that rednote and xhs are not separated(?) somehow. I don't know if this affects how my content is being seen.

Like yesterday I posted a new art and even after many hours it has literally ZERO views. I think this is not normal. I posted in what would be evening in Chinese timezone, and I have posted many other art in the same time range and this has never happened before. 2-3 other posts I made a few days ago, after this new update took effect, seems to have fairly low views too compared to content I posted before this update date.

Anyone else noticing any drops or difference lately?

I spent a year and a half making friends with folks in China via this app, now I can’t talk to them at all. Of course it all went to hell when the place got brigaded by MAGA

I think you have having the same issues I am having here. I don't think it is a shadow ban. :C

Basicly, from my experiance, anyone out side of China can see your posts. But none of my comments or my DMs go through. Even to non-chinese users.

I thought the same but there is a difference between profile and notes. Try click a note from you and click boost you may find its 3/4 like mine

I don't make content, just watch. But, I'm still able to interact normally.. still seeing the same mix of content

i cringed this morning seeing some american white girl post about her selfharm scars and mental issues and hairloss, like sis why are you daring to do this here though. This shit is taboo for a reason

it aint even just about politics, just stop discussing the messy parts of your life. Nobody wanna see that

this makes so much sense! none of my friends have been responding to my comments on their content or my dms! i honestly thought they were all mad and ignoring me for some unknown reason! my personal content views have also dropped drastically. i could care less about that, though. what matters to me is now i am completely cut off from the few very good friends i have built relationships with 😭 luckily i exchanged wechats with a couple of them.. but i never thought to ask my bestie

the weird thing is, i can still see everyone’s updates and make the comments, they just aren’t seeing my comments or updates.

I don't know forsure but I'm Canadian and just started on Rednote a few weeks ago. Most of my posts only get 25ish views.

it looks like this to my friends, but i never received any messages from the app that i violated any rules or that i was suspended. i can still log in, leave comments, send messages and see my own profile, but no one is receiving them. also, some people are able to see my profile because i am getting a few views. but no one in the mainland can see it anymore. i made a post with your advice, so i’ll keep my fingers crossed and hope it helps 🤞🤞

edit; oops, i meant to post this in reply to your other comment, haha

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.
