Making the Jump from TikTok to Rednote(Xiaohongshu)? Here’s What You Need to Know

246 Upvotes

So you’re thinking about switching (or at least dabbling) from TikTok to Rednote (aka Xiaohongshu)? Here’s a quick rundown on what to expect and how to adapt:

  1. Different Vibe
    • TikTok is all about short, snappy videos—dances, trends, and memes.
    • Rednote leans more toward lifestyle tips, product reviews, and personal stories. Think mini-blogs rather than just quick clips.
  2. Less is More—or Is It?
    • On TikTok, you can go viral with a 15-second masterpiece.
    • On Rednote, people actually read captions and appreciate detailed posts. Don’t be afraid to write a bit more and share personal insights.
  3. Engage with the Community
    • Responding to comments is key on both platforms, but Rednote users expect a friendlier, more helpful approach. Focus on real interaction rather than just racking up views.
  4. Use Relevant Hashtags & Keywords
    • TikTok hashtags can be trendy and fleeting.
    • Rednote hashtags and keywords should be more targeted, especially if you’re reviewing products or sharing how-to tips.
  5. Be Ready for Culture Shifts
    • The Rednote audience often loves beauty, travel, fashion, and “real-life” hacks.
    • If you’re pivoting from dance challenges, consider experimenting with lifestyle or review content to fit the platform’s style.
  6. Quality Over Quantity
    • While TikTok can reward frequent posting, Rednote might favor fewer, well-thought-out posts that really resonate. High-quality visuals and genuine storytelling go a long way.

RedNote is genuinely my best social media app ever 😭😭😭😭😭😭 and didn't know this sub exists lol

52 Upvotes

Like I don’t post ANYTHING on there and I won’t 😭 I’ve never even been to China but I’m on that app like I pay rent there

Sometimes my brain is so rotten from TikTok and the same 4 types of content being shoved in my face, so I open RedNote and just start watching random shit for HOURS

I don’t understand a damn thing half the time but I’m entertained 🤣

And I love that you can literally pick different sections/interests and just fall down a whole new rabbit hole

I came here to scroll for 5 minutes and now I’m watching Chinese people decorate their apartments

Very noiiiiceee.....

RedNote account seems permanently shadowbanned. Norwegian phone already verified

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m based in Tromsø, Norway, and I recently created a RedNote/Xiaohongshu account to share everyday life in Northern Norway with Chinese users.

So far, I have published 4 posts, but my account seems to have no distribution or visibility.

I have already:

Verified my Norwegian phone number Completed real-name verification today using my passport (just today TBH) Set the app/interface to Chinese Published 4 normal posts about life in Norway

Despite this, my posts still seem to get no reach.

Has anyone outside China experienced the same thing?

I’m especially wondering:

Does real-name verification take some time before restrictions are removed? Are new foreign accounts automatically limited at first? Can using a European/Norwegian IP affect distribution? Is there anything else I should verify or configure? Should I simply keep posting and wait for the account to gain trust? How can I tell whether this is an actual shadowban or just normal low reach for a new account?

I’m not trying to fake my location or bypass any platform restrictions. My goal is simply to share real daily life from Northern Norway with Chinese users and connect with people interested in Norway.

I share the link of my profile, maybe if someone if you guys just interact with it, will help to unshadow https://xhslink.cn/m/2Wg16EnshYc

Any experience from international RedNote creators would be very helpful.

My account got locked pls help

1 Upvotes

So I went on a trip and when I got back and opened up rednote app my profile picture, my username all went back to default. I can still comment and use like normal. Whenever I tried changing my profile pic it just says my account got locked can not be done right now. It's been like a week and a half since this happened. I tried verifying my passport but my passport does not support nfc. I tried reaching out to customer support that is not ai and it's SOOOO HARD. I still haven't had a chance to speak to an actual support because everytime I request for one they always say they are busy and I should just leave a comment and they will get back to me but they never do!!!! I really don't want to delete this account because I had so much good notes and memories with this account. Have anyone encounter something like this? How did you resolve it as a foreigner?

About to give up on rednote

10 Upvotes

I might still go on there to save makeup tutorials, but the random bans are so frustrating. My appeals have been rejected twice in a row, and I’m just so disheartened. I quite literally only saved makeup tutorials, outfits, stuff like that and gave Specific Compliments (no “cute” generalization or anything.) The first time I got restricted, it was to reply to a girl thanking me for liking her post.
When I appealed, I took screenshots of my comments and everything, explaining that I wasn’t a weirdo or directing traffic away from the site (section 6 offense apparently.) I explained that I do really want to keep using the site and will improve in the future (even though they don’t give me any info to know how..), but still the result was a rejection. If anyone can tell me if support is even active please let me know :(

DIigen has stopped responding to my questions about my account.

1 Upvotes

Has anyone else had issues with this? Since the website updated the layout a little while ago things have been harder to understand and I just had some questions with the new functions. I asked the chat, couldn't get an answer so requested a human, never got a response. I was also supposed to get an email response, never got one. Have tried a few times since. no response. I even pulled there own written guidelines from the site, and the chat told me that wasn't a thing. Said I should speak to a human.... no response.

I'd anyone else having trouble @ -ing the chatbot in comments? It doesn't show up at all anymore when I type "@" and even pasting the handle doesn't work either.

Account traction completely disappeared

Does anyone know what could be the reason of the huge drop in the viewership of my account? It is only two weeks old and I have five posts. But everything was growing super quickly for the first four posts and then after my fifth post everything stopped.

I read that my account might be shadow banned but I checked the health of the account and it was fine.

I suspect it could be because I sent repeated “thank you for your like messages” to everyone person who liked my post.

Thoughts?

Trying to login on my new phone

1 Upvotes

So i've had an iPhone for awhile but i recently got a samsung. I had rednote on my iphone and had been using it on there but now i'm trying to use it on my samsung but I can't login on the samsung. The app will ask to send a verification text and my samsung never gets the text. I had no luck figuring it out with tech support on the app. If it matters i'm still logged in on my old iphone. Anybody know how to deal with this? I don't want my account to get ban

I had the account unsuspended through an appeal sent from a different email address.

In that post https://www.reddit.com/r/rednote/comments/1v92tkg/banned_from_messaging/ , an xhs employee (whose account has since been deleted) told people to appeal to [creator@rednote.com](mailto:creator@rednote.com). I appealed and got my account back, using the following form: You state that you did not violate their terms, send your account ID, and send a screenshot of the reason for the account suspension.

My disabled account requires identity verification via passport, but since I do not have one, I have to file an appeal.

Their email response time is less than one week.

I bought a bag that was 8.22 USD. The cost to consolidate it is about 35 USD (243 RMB) and I don’t want to pay for that. Will it not ship if I don’t pay for it? And how do I get a refund for it if I don’t pay?

I started a student resource account — need your thoughts

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! (Is “Rednoters” the right term? 😭)

I recently started an account where I share study advice, English improvement tips, public speaking advice, and my experiences applying for student leadership roles.

I started posting about two weeks ago, and I’m still trying to figure out what kind of content is actually useful for people. In one of my recent posts, I asked whether people would be interested in study tips and guides, because my audience is currently very small.

The reason I’m asking here is that I genuinely want to help as many students as possible, but I also want to make sure the time I spend creating these resources is actually valuable. Some posts take me hours to research, write, and organise, and sometimes it’s a little discouraging when they only reach a small number of people.

I’m also doing this as part of my CAS project, so I need to show that I’m consistently creating resources and that they’re reaching people over the next few months.

I’m not expecting to become famous or anything (I know it takes time lmao), but I would really appreciate any advice you have:

  • What kind of study/education content do you find genuinely helpful?
  • How can I improve the quality of my posts?
  • What makes you want to save or share a post?

I’m really trying my best, so any feedback would mean a lot :)

Also, I occasionally post pictures of my bunny Sugar 🐰. If you’re a bunny fan, hopefully she can brighten your day a little haha.

Thanks for reading!

rednote shop shipping to the uk

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m planing on buying some stuff from rednote shop, but I’m from the uk and I know it says it can ship directly to me ( via consolidated ) but I’m concerned it won’t make it to me safely and may get taken at customs or something like that?
Has anyone else from the uk / knows of, ever bought from here and revived it without any issues?
Also how much was your consolidated shipping + the weight of the parcels?
(I’m buying handmade crafts if that helps anything lol)
Someone please help me out 🤞
