New users have piled in to the Chinese social media app RedNote just days before a proposed US ban on the popular social media app TikTok, as the lesser-known company rushes to capitalize on the sudden influx while walking a delicate line of moderating English-language content.
When I first downloaded it, everything was in Chinese. There was no option to enter a U.S. telephone number to complete registration. Today, you can fully view the app in English and enter a U.S. phone number. They are adapting quickly.
Curious that they’re calling it “RedNote” instead of “Little Red Book.”
out of 170 million; less than 1% 🤦♂️
That’s still an absurd amount given the context
In only two days, more than 700,000 new users joined Xiaohongshu, a person close to the company said.
RemindMe! 7 days
Because tiktok still works. The majority won’t seek out something else until the day that tiktok turns off (assuming that it does.)
