I was among the wave of TikTok Refugees when the US Govt banned TikTok, and since FaceBook has seemingly acquired it, the App hasn't had the same vibe. I jumped ship to Red Note, and I'm wondering if anybody else has been astounded by the Chinese culture and OMG, the food!?

I have not understood the whole TikTok ban, other apps like Temu, and Aliexpress has a better chance of getting our personal data then TikTok

It was never about "personal data". It's about control and money. It's always about money.
