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.
They blocked the TikTok domain in China. What would you call that, if not a ban?
You are naive if you believe they aren't going to sever the communities. That was always going to happen.
The only vibe I get from you is "15yo who just learned about politics".
AN: read this user's comment history lmao
Why don't you answer the question?
But TikTok is still banned by China.. Chinese people cannot sign up for TikTok and communicate with the outside world.
Why is it a different product then? Does it allow the same content? Same algorithm?
Or is it different, and not an actual carbo copy?
They are different like McDonald's and Burger King. While similar, Douyin is only available for people in China and it's heavenly censored and have a lot propaganda from Chinese government.
Proof?
What are you asking for exactly? You can't buy a whooper in McDonald's
The last portion of your comment. Curious if you had proof
Probably can't show you something that's censored and removed 😆
You can watch laowhy86 watching Douyin propaganda content https://youtu.be/3aYCG4vEe5s
Lmfao. Big true thank you for insight 💜💜
I've just heard that a lot but never really seen proof it happens.
No problem 😃 I did find this article from NYTimes, that explains douyin well. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/25/business/china-tiktok-douyin.html
