Can anyone explain to me what makes TikTok and now this RedNote so much better than the other short form options (YT, Insta... others) that people think learning a completely different and unfamiliar language is not only viable, but the best option?

I want to learn another language for travel purposes, which to me makes sense. I've never had the itch to learn one so I could use a social media platform.

They said a 216% spike

That could be an extra 15 people

I'm pretty sure that this post is a total load of bs.

I don't understand how the Tiktok ban is related to another apps' user decline.

[-] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 12 points 15 hours ago

the app people are going to instead of TikTok is RedNote which is only built with the Chinese language. so some people are trying to learn Chinese to navigate the app.

[-] Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me 1 points 9 hours ago

To talk to the people much more than just navigating the app, they want to meaningfully engage and be accessible to the chinese people because it's their app meant for actual chinese people.

I do not see anything in the article about user decline for any app, which app is losing users besides TikTok?
