People who've used Xiaohongshu(Red note), how is it like? Also is there any FOSS client? (lemmy.sdf.org)

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.

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 we 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.”

You're calling it a success because you are mistakenly under the impression people aren't worried about themselves and their families?

What a low bar and an incorrect one.

Okay, thanks for repeating yourself I guess.
