Have heard of it during the Tiktok ban and most comments about it seem positive.
I generally try to avoid using apps that are non-FOSS or opensource, and tried to use the website. I think it’s my network provider, but I can’t really use the site as it only seems to be available once every 2-3 reloads(I also use a private dns as without that it take 4-5 reloads). I also think that app users can easily change the interface language, as I couldn’t find where the switch was on the website. Couldn’t create an account because of the same too.
Is there any foss client for it? If not, is the app decent on privacy n all? I generally avoid meta apps, except Whatsapp(which is the major messaging app in India).
Also, what was your experience there? Most comments about the interactions seem very positive. But I have that doubt whether I’m being biased my pov as a leftist.
So I thought I could ask here and see the general opinion.
Thanks in advance.

*CPC, right?
Why’d I post a tank man picture?
I respect the tank folk there. They were very decent. I’m from India and if I had stood alone(I think group protests may fare better) before a police jeep or so. I’d likely be arrested, maybe even thrown around by the police if they were aggressive policemen.
But that guy stood infront of a tank and the tank drivers were decent.
Also, I haven’t made an account yet.
Was asking about it here before that
Or better yet, post a video of tank man, and learn that he was blocking tanks from leaving the protest, not going to it, and that, after climbing onto the tank and having a conversation with the crew, he left the area with some other civilians.

Is that why folks can post pictures of tank man without worrying about themselves or their families?
The only reason you think that is from of the anti-communist propaganda we’ve been fed your entire lives, but that doesn’t make it true.
Uhhhh, okay. Why don’t you try an experiment if you don’t believe me?
Will ypu share some rednote videos that feature tank man that do so without decrying it as western propoganda etc?
Last I heard from journalists, showing cards with 4 and 6 together was banworthy etc…
“Nobody” cares about posting videos of tank. Most people just want to watch dance, fashion, cute animals and funny videos. Explain how any of those would be beneficial for china
I’m not on RedNote, so no.
If you say so, but that’s nothing whatsoever like, “worrying about themselves or their families.”
Reporter: [REDACTED]
Reason: False information. Here actual footage: https://youtu.be/FaojdRThXbY
Reporter, CBS’s footage is the same fucking footage.
Why is this always the argument that comes up? It’s like if foreign people came by thousands to post the 9/11 attacks on american media to test the free speech. Most would take it down, some might stay up, but it’s ultimately still very disrespectful and upsetting for a lot of people.
You can enjoy a heavily moderated platform for what it’s good at. I use rednote for my cat, food and art content and enjoy the cultural exchange. There are better suited apps in general for free speech and political debate. I’m tired of politics invading every platform, so it’s been rather nice in that aspect. For what I want to use that app for, I’m perfectly fine with the CCP’s rules, even if I disagree with some aspects of the CCP.
Free speech is important, but we don’t need it literally everywhere.
I mean, look up September 11 attack on YouTube and see how many results pop up. Not a great example.
Those vids probably are probably pro-America, right?
There are plenty of videos describing what America did to bring about the 9/11 attacks. So again, not a good example
