Text for readability:

So far, Americans using RedNote have said they don't care if China has access to their data. Viral videos on TikTok in recent days have shown Americans jokingly saying they will miss their personal "Chinese spy," while others say they are purposefully giving RedNote access to their data in a show of protest against the wishes of the U.S. government.

"This also highlights the fact that people are thirsty for platforms that aren't controlled by the same few oligarchs," Quintin said. "People will happily jump to another platform even if it presents new, unknown risks."

Where were people's protests & complaints when the US government were first proposing the ban?

very beta rn, but its no worse than TikTok functionally and doesn't have any Chinese spyware

It is dogshit compared to tiktok in the only functionality that matters - algorithmic matching of content to user.

Yeah ok it can stream a video cool. That's not worth a can of beans in 2025 - can it give you content that you want to see when you want to see it?

The answer is a resounding no right now. Until it's consistently serving up top notch pairings of content to user interest it wont stand a chance in the mainstream.

I have a loops account but I have not been able to upload a video in over a month, it fails on every single attempt.

We are using it mainly as a massive middle finger to the US government

I mean apples to oranges, this isn't really anything like tiktok, we don't share shorts here we create and post on each other's posts
