Comment on US users dumped RedNote after Trump paused the TikTok ban
Gerudo@lemm.ee 1 week agoPeople jumped on rednote because influencers early on latched on to it. The average tiktoker isn’t using these platforms to prove a point, if they were, they would be posting about why exactly they are using it. I never saw any traction on any post specifically saying they were on rednote because they wanted to support a non-US platform.

Uh, yeah, obviously. They chose RedNote because it was going to piss the people who banned TikTok off even more then TikTok did. There was never any other reason. I never saw anybody claim there was another reason. It was a giant middle finger to the people who took away their crappy app. They stuck it to the people who took away their favorite thing to do while taking 30 minutes in the bathroom, and then they went on with their lives when they got what they wanted. That is the thing that happened.
