For those of you who have TikTok, where are you going after it’s banned? (hexbear.net)

Assuming you’re going to replace it with anything, where are you going. I downloaded rednote which is kind of like Chinese instagram because it’s a perfect F-you to meta and everyone else to go straight back to Chinese tech. I’ve also heard the names Neptune, lemon8 and a few others thrown around. Where are you guys headed?

(However I believe we’re truly losing something important that won’t be replaced, TikTok was one of a kind in the fact that everyone was on it despite it not being American)

I downloaded rednote and tried to upload a video today and couldn't get it to work. The first couple of tries the video was choppy and out of sync with the sound and then I couldn't pick a cover, etc. I'm hoping they are just being crushed by increased traffic because I'd really like a proper global platform

Edit: so I was able to post a video and it seems fine. I think the editor is buggy because the video was definitely fucked when I hit post, but it uploaded without the choppiness
