Americans are joining the Chinese social media app en masse to protest an imminent TikTok ban.

  • American users have flocked to Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu in defiance of security warnings.
  • Chinese and American users have engaged in surprisingly friendly conversations about each other’s lives.

    It might take a little while for the email to show up. When I signed up, it was a couple of hours, but it was under a good bit of stress at the time.

    Things are going smoothly this morning. Uploads are quick to process, and the timeline seems to be moving along with new content. So YMMV
