        Except it’s owned by Xingyin Information Technology? And I didn’t see any ads on Tiktok for Rednote, just creators telling me that’s where they’re going.

        Did you just make that up, or did someone lie to you?

      I think that’s the point… Its a protest, and RedNote doesn’t even pretend that it isn’t a part of the CCP. The tiktok users know this, they are just trying to give the biggest middle finger they can.

          It’s a protest, it won’t last forever. Americans aren’t going to learn Mandarin fluently.

          99% off the comments are in Mandarin, and like 50% of the UI is still in Mandarin even from US app stores.

          Given that I live in America, I’d rather China controlling my apps than the American government.
