Some say they joined Xiaohongshu, which translates to “little red book,” to spite the US government after a ban on TikTok became more likely.

    Rumor has it that tiktok will be unplayable with accounts linked to an American SIM card

      That… would be interesting. I wonder how they would implement that, and what else they decide is worth that restriction. Curious to see it play out

      Tiktok is going to be paradise without all the US problems in everybody else’s internet. It’s going to be the best social network ever

        That is actually a really funny point I hadn’t thought of.

          Yeah. Think about it. If you’re English speaker user, sooner or later you get bombarded qith content from the US and people’s solutions for it are always the same : just don’t use insert social media app that much until the elections are over. But the drama bever stops
