TikTok is old news now. Everyone’s joining 小紅書 and getting fully Xi-pilled.

In not sure if used traditional characters for some kind of ironic effect or not.

why write the name in traditional? if you're going to refer to it in another language, why not just write it as 小红书？

This shows that seo-speedwagon is opposed to mainland China. Writing the name in traditional characters, which are used in Taiwan, is another barb of seo-speedwagon against mainland China and its government.

Maybe they use a traditional character keyboard and don't have a simplified character keyboard set up.

Better yet why not transliterate it so the rest of us can read the conversation.

This isn’t exaggeration btw. Gen Z is basically a cooked generation at this point.

Because we don't like what the US government and their corporate overlords are doing?
