I didn’t appeal anything and when I click on the system notification, I get an error message.

I understand that it was successful; that’s great, but I’m confused as to what even happened in the first place. This happened yesterday.

After I got this notification, my pinned notes were suddenly unpinned and I had to re-pin them. I’ve also noticed that people’s replies to me on others’ notes have randomly disappeared. It’s possible they could’ve just been deleted, but I don’t see why, considering they were from half a month ago and didn’t contain anything inappropriate or rule-breaking. I used the in-app “account check” tool just now and my account’s standing is fine, but I got a DM earlier today saying that it’s been a long time since that user had seen me and that she was wondering what happened to my videos. They’re all still up. I responded quickly and said as much, then asked if she could still see them. I haven’t received a response. I’m still allowed to DM people and comment on notes, so I’d assume that my account really is fine and I’m not banned; I’m just befuddled since my Chinese isn’t good enough to navigate the app without using translation software and I feel like I’ve must misunderstood something.

I guess I must’ve been shadowbanned? When I copy/paste my profile link and open it in an internet browser (where I’m not logged in), it says I don’t have any notes, but I tested it by doing the same with a friend’s profile link and it displays a couple of her notes. I’m not really sure what to do; should I contact support? Do people ever just randomly get unshadowbanned? I deleted my most recent post just in case that somehow triggered a shadowban, but I’m not sure why it would. I’ve posted selfies before and none of them come anywhere close to being inappropriate.

I mostly use Chinese to post and comment unless I have to use English because I can’t express what I’m trying to say in Chinese. My account is already linked to my Apple account, my Weibo account, and my WeChat account. I don’t have a passport, so if they ask me for verification, I won’t be able to do it.

If this happened recently, it may be a temporary restriction due to June 4th. My account has been restricted (international friends can see and interact with my posts but anyone with a Chinese phone number can’t. I can still like posts and see DMs but my comments can’t be seen by my Chinese friends and neither can my replies to DMs), I have no violations and my posts have all passed review.

I would wait to see if the restriction is lifted after this week. A Chinese mobile game I play has also had its sharing function disabled during this time.

This has happened to me too. I'm so upset because XHS is my main social media account and I would like it to go back to normal. 😫

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.
