The Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu—better known internationally as RedNote—is scrambling to boost its ability to moderate English-language content after hundreds of thousands of American users suddenly joined the platform in anticipation of TikTok potentially being banned in the United States on Sunday.

after hundreds of thousands of American users suddenly joined the platform
Over 3 million new US users right now actually, according to Reuters
Its a shitshow but one has to admire how fast that went.
Fucking hilarious
how do we know those aren’t just bots/propaganda?
What reason do you have to think they are? Who has a motive to suddenly flood RedNote with fake Americans?
China trying to keep americans on a Chinese app vs an app they can’t control. Honestly, even here in Lemmy the conversation surrounding the TikTok ban looks like when bots and bad actors were appearing to support trump on Reddit in 2016.
China is still an adversary of the US with lots of human rights abuses and no qualms taking any advantage it can over the US. Zuckeberg isnt really much better, but he’s a harder problem to deal with
What a dog’s breakfast. You’re so fully and completely propagandized that you probably don’t even know you’re being propagandized. If you think Lemmy has bots & bad actors, why don’t you go back to the safety of Reddit’s echo chamber of CIA bots?
Lol. Just because I think Lemmy has some around a specific topic does not mean that Reddit doesn’t for sure have a shit ton more.
Most of the internet is bots anyway, you and me included
I wonder how/if TikTok will change after such rapid and specific flux in the community
