TikTok refugees have already noted harsh restrictions on RedNote that have resulted in their content being removed or their accounts being suspended, including for mentioning LGBTQ+ identities or for women, wearing a slightly low-cut top.

How people knew about RedNote at the start of that wave? In ads, by influencers, in the news? Idk because I'm not in the US, but I suspect something more than a word of a mouth. Especially if TikTok itself was (was it?) a source to know about it's contender that is mostly in chinese lol.

It looks like PRC gvmt and corpos play hydra.
