It’s more like a mix of Instagram and Pinterest. Short form video is frowned upon, they value longer and more thoughtful videos. It is definitely not TikTok, despite what the tiktok refugees initially thought.
They are actively working on English localization and translation, and they include a feature to automatically add subtitles in both English and Mandarin when speaking either.
It is a very welcoming community and it’s mostly people sharing pictures of their pets in the comments.
It’s not “owned” by the Chinese government, but like every other corporation in China it is the government that holds corporations to account, not the other way around like in the US. And it’s more for worker protections and other regulations than it is for any sort of nefarious purposes.
Correct. It was American corporations putting up suicide nets around the facilities they owned that were exploiting rural Chinese people that didn’t fully understand their rights under Chinese law, and once again American corporate oligarchy flexed their influence to convince gullible Americans that this is somehow a failing of the Chinese government instead of American corporations doing what they always do, which is squeeze workers to the point of exhaustion.
You have been lied to, and you are swallowing it whole. Open your eyes, friend. We are the baddies. We always have been.
This appears to be a publicly traded company based in China. But it isn’t owned by the Chinese Government any more than Facebook or Twitter is owned by the American government.
RedNote is an app similar to Tiktok but actually owned by the Chinese Government.
What is even more crazy is that it’s not really even localized and most of the app is in Mandarin.
My initial comment is completely incorrect. I apologize for spreading misinformation.
As other commenters pointed out, RedNote is a private company operating in mainland China and is not owned by the government.
It is owned by a private Chinese company, not the Chinese government. It’s just another corporate social media platform. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaohongshu

The suicide nets indicate the worker protections aren’t all that great…
The suicide nets put up around American owned foxconn facilities?
Yes, it is the Americans putting up suicide nets. jfc

Facebook and Twitter more accurately own the American government. Or at least their oligarch owners own the American government.
