more adventures on rednote mostly because it’s entertaining how mad people get when i talk about it :3 /halfjoke

this was posted 12/31 btw so i don’t think “the mods haven’t gotten to it yet” is a real thing

#le is common in parallel to the anglosphere’s #wlw which i think is adorable

my number one qualm with little red book so far is there is no native translation like tiktok has. lots of google translate is necessary to get the social media to social :P

necessary disclaimer: fuck the CCP and all the real violence and repression they do. just want to give credit given where due, and so far here im just seeing a lot of assumptions with no evidence? so im gonna post what my experience is :) i welcome all to do the same

    Is LGBTQ+ content not restricted/shadow banned there? 31 hearts and 1 comment isn’t really a lot.

    If Twitter took away the restricted flag, would anyone have known typing “cisgender” is blacklisted? Most corporate social media don’t publish what is or isn’t restricted.

    Plus China officially encourages “”““traditional””“” gender roles since their demographic crisis will come crashing down soon, with LGBTQ+ centers and clubs being shut down by the government.

      I was wondering this as well and have been incredibly surprised how different the landscape is from my assumptions. Their algorithm very quickly understood my identity and preferences and started mixing in a good amount of wlw content with just an overflow of positive comments and engagement. I was also super happy to see creators that I enjoy being welcomed and praised on the platform - creators which 100% of the time have people leave the most unkind comments on their posts. There’s one in particular, a man who showcases and slays in his dresses, which I’ve yet to see one negative comment towards. Time will tell how long things stay this way!

        I got Chappel Roan and Sabrina Carpenter content within like 20 minutes of scrolling I felt so at home

      Good question. Here’s one from the same account with 16k likes. Any restrictions on LGBT content is not significantly worse than we already see from Meta and TikTok.

      Re: the rest of your comment, yeah fuck the CCP as I said in OP. Just giving credit where due and a lot of people (like yourself) make a couple of (understandable) assumptions that are not backed up by any experience I have had yet.
