So it was gone and it's back now? I'm confused lol

Never had an account personally, so I just see the here and there from time to time.

shrikedan.bsky.social•37 days ago

Also, Rednote’s already becoming to TikTok what Blusky is to Twitter.

desdarkdesigns.bsky.social•37 days ago

Just a reminder that Rednote seems at least from people asking Chinese queer people, to be less forgiving about queer topics on their algo keep that in mind.

maplekeurig.bsky.social•37 days ago

ive heard! i wish i knew how to make an account 😭

shrikedan.bsky.social•37 days ago

I don’t really care for RedNote similarly to TikTok, but it’s nice to see it blow up to the point of having people actually learn a new language.

albycnyu.bsky.social•37 days ago

I'm pretty sure you'd sign up using your phone number and you should be good to go. They've recently updated where it translate to a language of your choosing to help make the navigation of the site easier.

maplekeurig.bsky.social•37 days ago

oh shoot i last tried last week and everything was still in its native language

glad people have an easier way in! ima hold off til i learn more about the site for sure then

bunnygirlaikovt.bsky.social•37 days ago

They've rapidly been translating Red Note for those who can't speak Mandarin. When I downloaded it a few days back on google play store it was already almost completely in english

flaagan.bsky.social•37 days ago

The people making comments of "why was it banned while Meta's doing the same thing, I don't care" really show how damn gullible some folks are. If your response to it being banned was "well Meta gets away with it" and not "cool, now ban the domestic groups getting away with it", you've been played.

ruiiplume.art•37 days ago

Glad i been over tiktok before the whole shitshow began. This whole thing is all propaganda from the jump smh 🙄

maxinemspaint.bsky.social•37 days ago

You’re telling me Christians and Republicans are insanely corrupt and evil and like to use mass hysteria to persuade and manipulate people into fascism???

Oh my Lordy, I could’ve not seen this coming from 700 feet away with a blooming cloud of black smoke behind it.

solariumgalaxy.bsky.social•37 days ago

They could've at least made it believable, then again they don't have to because thia country man 🤷‍♂️

supnovagy.bsky.social•37 days ago

Thank god I never used it in the first place, just read drama stories about it

maplekeurig.bsky.social•37 days ago

i watched ones my friends would send me and it was nice while it lasted 💔

maplekeurig.bsky.social•37 days ago

THIS ISNT NORMAL !!!
its so blatant and gross!! they think we're stupid and they're not even hiding it!

venkix.bsky.social•37 days ago

Unfortunately, a lot of people will believe it.

cobbil.bsky.social•37 days ago

Like most major company we interact with, Tiktok is making that abrupt right turn to appease the national embarrassment.

This won't stop until, hopefully, the tumor is removed.

honeybttch.bsky.social•37 days ago

"They think we're stupid"

I'm sorry to tell you this. But Americans...

funnyvampireguy.bsky.social•37 days ago

Hi! If you're not American, this isn't funny. Our illiteracy and general population's trust in government systems is due to years and lifetimes of brainwashing tactics that start at birth and purposefully poor education! We are not idiots, we are victims of our own government.

mollyskyfire.bsky.social•37 days ago

this.

uori.bsky.social•37 days ago

it was literally just a political dance. I'm more concerned about it being an act of showing/threatening websites/apps to follow their rules or now be censored.

maplekeurig.bsky.social•37 days ago

thats exactly what im worried about
this is just a taste test

kiraelric.bsky.social•37 days ago

Trump has literally said "I love the poorly educated" and that's exactly what they want.

crankpork.bsky.social•37 days ago

So... was this supposed to have gone up after the Inauguration, but someone accidentally set it to go off on the date (in their own timezone) by accident? He's not even been sworn in yet, and this kinda gives away the game, no?

bladedge.bsky.social•37 days ago

Tiktok shutdown is a stunt - nothing required it to actually shut down. When Trump takes office he will "rescue" Tiktok with a 90 day pause

problemchildzu.bsky.social•37 days ago

It's back cool, but now I'd feel gross using it. Don't think I even want to download it again.

dcappo.bsky.social•37 days ago

I hope the youth he is targeting are ready to be drafted for all his annexing goals 😊

turnerjoy.bsky.social•37 days ago

They even shut down before they had to in order to do this stunt

sucrebear.bsky.social•37 days ago

It sucos because im fucking hearing my younger coworkers say shit like "I thought he was an asshole, but if he cares enough to give us back tiktok maybe he's not so bad"
AND IM
AAAAA
NO
DONT FALL FOR THE VERY OBVIOUS TRICK THEYRE TRYING TO PULL TO UP HIS POPULARITY WITH YOUTH

cuttysark.bsky.social•37 days ago

Blame the Democrats, they forced this through. It was a completely unforced error.

sucrebear.bsky.social•37 days ago

I blame both parties, the rock-headed republicans that treat every political election like a sporting match, even if their representative is literally Hitler 2 And the spinless pathetic democrats that get fucking NOTHING done and refuse to take a stand that might disrupt the flow of things
both suck

satanicmechanic.bsky.social•37 days ago

Millennials are gonna be the only living generation that isn't mostly stupid af, we will never vote our way out of this

sucrebear.bsky.social•37 days ago

I truly fear for Zoomers because none of them are politically competent unless they're marginalized (LGBT, PoC, disabled, etc.) so the majority of the privileged ones are coasting through life without caring about anyone or anything and when they inherit this fucking dumpster fire [1/2]

sucrebear.bsky.social•37 days ago

they wont be able to cope or fix anything because the world will be too fucked up to fix. The nihilism of my generation is poisonous and I hate it so fucking much [2/2]

deadmasteryomi.bsky.social•28 days ago

IT’S SO OBVIOUS

Listen to the language! “We are so thankful to supreme ruler Trump for his generosity and kindness, we LOVE supreme ruler Trump🤖🤖”

HELLO??? Would y’all PLEASE STOP caring more about the source of your fucking entertainment than, oh I don’t know, your country and your rights????

alyula.itch.io•37 days ago

And here I was thinking the ban was a bad idea. TikTok sure showed me!

scionofnight.bsky.social•37 days ago

Motherfucker hasn't even been sworn in yet!

berrirae.bsky.social•37 days ago

Its so not normal!! 😭 I was on tiktok as it went dark and suddenly it's back. Facebook has an account on there now, and Facebook is now asking to link to tiktok.

No fucking thanks.

I know nothing is confirmed, but I wouldn't be shocked if they sold to Meta.

potatomaster1005.bsky.social•37 days ago

What's next discord gets banned for no reason? The fact they can just ban shit that they don't like is scary as hell

potatomaster1005.bsky.social•37 days ago

Mom 4 likes I'm famous

hidaatarasi.bsky.social•37 days ago

scikosis.bsky.social•37 days ago

In fairness, they would have thanked anyone for this, but what fucks me up is, this now feels like they're giving up the ghost finally and saying "Fuck left vs right" it's full on class warfare now, coz Biden could have done this too. The TikTok ban was originally Trump's idea. The gov is aligned

lycanthro93.bsky.social•37 days ago

Did the swearing in happen yet? I'm very behind on news, I thought it was still president-elect felon trump

doctorwhy.bsky.social•37 days ago

He promised an executive order delaying its ban.

lycanthro93.bsky.social•37 days ago

Oh, so he did nothing then

tractusb.bsky.social•37 days ago

I'll let you know when I have time to abhor such shameless display. For now, I'm still hung up on the asshole that made quick work of banning it for the most predictable reason imaginable.

abedrayton.bsky.social•37 days ago

It is extremely normal. Capitalists generally believe they deserve their wealth, so it's inevitable that they view anyone poorer as less deserving in various ways. Mainly, they barely see US as human, let alone as being anything close to intelligent.

It's like Musk pretending to be a pro gamer.

abedrayton.bsky.social•37 days ago

Sorry - normal in some ways. You're right that this seems like a new level of blatancy.

At least more people are realizing what kind of world we live in.

suspinded.bsky.social•37 days ago

The below average intelligence will eat it up, and that's all they want.

thosehat.bsky.social•37 days ago

There’s a part of me that thinks it’s so blatant on purpose so people don’t fall for it. I’m probably wrong, but it’s a nice thought

maplekeurig.bsky.social•37 days ago

after seeing the ceos tiktoks idk anymore
but maybe i can hold onto this last hope as well 😭

hollowhope.bsky.social•37 days ago

Man, I hope their knees don't hurt too much after all that cock guzzling they're doing.

citrusmode.bsky.social•37 days ago

They threw a brick at the window's glass and then knocked on the door offering another one
What a disgusting and quackish tactic that fits Trump so much

megumagi.bsky.social•37 days ago

This is why they should be banned 🤣 Tho I don't use it nor do I care of this outcome. It's still entertaining slightly to see all this play out~

leanna.bsky.social•37 days ago

I mean, TikTok is owned by the Chinese Communist Party, you know, the dictatorship who is running the country to the ground, committing genocide of minorities and cultural genocide on Chinese culture, among a thousand other things.

And it has been proven they weaponize Tik Tok against the west.

leanna.bsky.social•37 days ago

Force them to sell it to a non-CCP controlled company was a net positive.

Everyone is aware the new axis is Trump + Russia + China, and Trump is already threatening Europe with starting a war, so of course he will side with the CCP about the Tik Tok ban.

leanna.bsky.social•37 days ago

And for the people who only thinks in white and black, I'm not defending Biden here, I'm just saying the ban was a good thing, doesn't matter who pushed for it.
