They have Douyin (it’s a carbon copy of tiktok). Rednote released a public statement welcoming US users, no evidence that what this article implies is being considered at all. The evidence is a reddit post. You are responding in agreement to a propaganda rag.
Imo it’s more sad than hilarious. US users and Chinese users meeting each other on the platform and discovering they are interesting people who actually have a lot in common sounds like what I’d wish the internet to be.
It’s not surprising, and I get the irony, but I feel more sad than amused.

…oh. Right. The great firewall.
This was the turn of events anyone who knows anything about China and the CCP (and how closely they control businesses there) would have expected.
I knew it was coming since that article yesterday about us Americans posting vids of 3D printed guns lmao
