i've put in my phone # with the right country code, put in the confirmation but it pops up with an error message in mandarin that i can't read cause i'm dumb ๐Ÿ˜ญ

if the "main" rule is still in effect that's what this sentence is for

Did you remember to pledge your life and eternal soul to defending the glory of president Xi?

I got in, but yes, it took me several tries. Make sure the country code is correct.

Also, my Google Voice number did not work. Had to be my main mobile device number.

main lol

Keep at it, it's worth it. Super cool content. I signed up for learning Mandarin, food, camping topics.

Also, my Google Voice number did not work.

I used my Google Voice number by registering through WeChat (which accepts GV).

FWIW, I added my GV number directly to my XHS account after registering and now I can log in with it

My phone number didn't work either. I just connected using my Google account.

It worked for me when I tried it at like 2am. Normal "awake" times in North America are going to be slammed right now with people fleeing TikTok.

It worked fine for me, but the country code picker was confusing. Maybe it's that?

i got an sms and the code seemed to work, it just didn't let me get past that

[โ€“] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 3 points 5 months ago

Try resending the code, sometimes you need to do that

oh! the code timeout is really short like only 60s and you don't see the countdown on every spot i think.

On my phone if i screen shot and open images it will translate UI elements, maybe that will work for you?

Honestly as someone that knows 0 chinese I was impressed I actually managed to make an account.
