    They have Douyin (it’s a carbon copy of tiktok). Rednote released a public statement welcoming US users, no evidence that what this article implies is being considered at all. The evidence is a reddit post. You are responding in agreement to a propaganda rag.

      But TikTok is still banned by China… Chinese people cannot sign up for TikTok and communicate with the outside world.

      They blocked the TikTok domain in China. What would you call that, if not a ban?

      You are naive if you believe they aren’t going to sever the communities. That was always going to happen.

      Why is it a different product then? Does it allow the same content? Same algorithm?

      Or is it different, and not an actual carbo copy?

        They are different like McDonald’s and Burger King. While similar, Douyin is only available for people in China and it’s heavenly censored and have a lot propaganda from Chinese government.
