I actually joined Rednote just to see what it’s like.
It’s cool, being on a platform that’s mostly people from another country/culture/language. You see that people are pretty much the same world over.
… Same inane bollocks from “influencers”, same stupid jump cuts constantly to make something boring look partially exciting, always with the end goal of pushing some product or service. But now it’s in Mandarin, and the brand names are written in moonrunes so I don’t know what they are.

Disappointing to hear it’s filled with “influencers”. I wonder how popular a platform can become without allowing the petty grifting and attention seeking tricks of social media.

I’ve found red note to have far fewer of the American-style “just trying to sell you something” influencers. Chinese influencers seem to just stay in their little bubble of focused content.
