Amid rumors of possible TikTok blocking, users are actively downloading the Chinese app Rednote, which quickly became the most downloaded app in the American App Store.
While it remained unclear what the fate of TikTok would be, users did not sit still and began to explore alternative platforms. As noted online, more than 63 thousand posts were published on Rednote with the hashtag #tiktokrefugee (“TikTok refugee”); Here, converts explain how this social network works and try to make new acquaintances with Chinese people.
Meanwhile, Lemon8 is a Chinese application that attracts the attention of Americans and is owned by the owners of TikTok and Rednote.
Let us remind you that this is happening in an environment where a law has been passed in the USA requiring TikTok to sell its shares in the country by January 19, otherwise the application will be blocked. However, TikTok has a different view on this issue: The company refuses to sell the business, citing violations of customer rights, and plans to pursue legal proceedings.
Previously, famous blogger Mr. Beast even volunteered to buy the social network. Additionally, the company is considering Elon Musk as a potential buyer, according to Bloomberg. This is due to the good reputation of the billionaire who owns the largest Tesla factory in China.
