Everyone just shows up in the same feed. USians are making posts in English alongside all the posts in Chinese. I’ve seen Chinese users making jokes like “Give me your data!” or “Welcome, I’m your new Chinese spy”. I saw one comment on a post that read, “They better start posting in English soon.” which, was getting heavily flamed. Lots of Luigi posting, it would seem. I also keep getting Chinese accounts posting a lot of really cool Socialist Realism art/propaganda posters, old and new. Lots of cringe USians making posts about being “refugees” on the app.

    I can’t get it to send me a text. Not even sure if I’m signing up right.

      I think it’s just whatever server runs the verification stuff is getting hit too hard. I had to resend the code a few times, but it eventually went through.

        Yeah for sure. Probably Twilio or something. I actually got in a little while ago. I never went on TikTok so I’m new to the format and may not stick around. Definitely interested in the phenomena though, and the opportunity to peek into some Chinese internet culture.
