Rednote isn’t trying to attract foreign users. It’s only blowing up because of the imminent app ban affecting TikTok, same as other apps like Lemon8.

I think believing that any one of these platforms isn’t trying to maximize what they can get out of the TikTok ban is a very naive assumption.

Why do you think a for profit corporation would look for more users thus increasing profits? /s

Also they are about to wall off the non Chinese users so she about to lose that 20k followers and be left in a version of tiktok refugees. If I were you I encourage her to not use that app. But be prepared for her followers to disappear and her being upset.
