Americans who have joined RedNote in protest of the U.S. government’s looming ban on TikTok have found new connections across international borders.

With TikTok's days in the U.S. potentially numbered, many American users are moving to another Chinese social media app: RedNote, a heavily censored platform similar to Instagram. Here's what to know.

Launched in 2013, RedNote is one of the most popular apps in China. It is valued at over $3 billion and has raised nearly $1 billion in venture funding, according to TechCrunch. In April, the U.S. Congress passed a bipartisan bill to ban TikTok unless it finds a new owner.
