The potential TikTok ban in the U.S. has led users to move to Xiaohongshu, a Chinese social media platform, altering online community dynamics significantly. As American users, known as "TikTok refugees," adapt to Xiaohongshu’s unique interface, the platform has seen more diverse content and increased cross-cultural exchanges, creating both growth opportunities and challenges. Notably, there has been a 30% increase in English-language content on Xiaohongshu due to this migration. The shift is fostering collaboration and content sharing across cultures but also has economic implications for creators and businesses that rely on TikTok’s platform. Xiaohongshu now has over 260 million global users, while TikTok had over 150 million monthly active users in the U.S.
