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.

    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.

        There are bots in the fediverse just like everywhere else.

          True, everyone with a different opinion than me is clearly always a bot.
