Due to the US government's ban on TikTok, many American users have begun looking for new social platforms. Last year, the US government announced that TikTok faced a "sale or ban" ruling and set a deadline of January 19. This news made thousands of American users anxious.
As TikTok's predicament becomes more serious, many American users have turned their attention to RedNote, where they share photos of their daily lives, pets, and even their own squirrels and donkeys, and express greetings in "plastic Chinese," calling themselves "TikTok refugees."
