TikTok Refugees - Where to next?

With the recent TikTok ban, many US users (#TikTokRefugees) are now flocking to Xiaohongshu (RedNote), a Chinese social media app with no English UI. It has now become the #1 downloaded app in the US. What are your thoughts on this unexpected shift? Is the surge organic, or do you think there's a strategic play behind? And more importantly, where are you and your brand influencers moving to next?

As far as I know, that ban is for all ByteDance products (including Lemon8). Isn't it?

Did you pay cat tax on Xiaohongshu? Lol You can even receive a receipt.

Launching soon!
For influencers, Instagram reels makes sense, for founders Youtube shorts might work better.

Instagram Reels. TikTok users moving to Rednote is just a phase—it probably won’t last...

Reels for sure.

Why waste time on another Chinese App and risking deletion. Why not switch to IG?
