more adventures on rednote mostly because it’s entertaining how mad people get when i talk about it :3 /halfjoke
this was posted 12/31 btw so i don’t think “the mods haven’t gotten to it yet” is a real thing
#le is common in parallel to the anglosphere’s #wlw which i think is adorable
my number one qualm with little red book so far is there is no native translation like tiktok has. lots of google translate is necessary to get the social media to social :P
necessary disclaimer: fuck the CCP and all the real violence and repression they do. just want to give credit given where due, and so far here im just seeing a lot of assumptions with no evidence? so im gonna post what my experience is :) i welcome all to do the same
Do you think the Chinese gov planned this and has been preparing for this? Like they couldn't just curate an entire social media sites worth of content just on the off chance that millions of Americans go there out of spite. Spite is rather unpredictable.
You know, when you put your app on the App Store you have to chose the region you want the app to be available in. So as rednote is available in the west they are prepared. And it’s not that hard to implement as their recommendation algorithm is fkn great, just look at the likes the OG post got and OP commented another post by the same account that got a magnitude more engagement. Apparently many also tested to post pro Taiwan or tiamin square content and their accounts got banned. China has a well documented history of massive censorship and media control, I mean their great firewall should give you an idea of what they do. It’s naive to think they release an App to the west without control of what it’s shown.
