In China, I think this might be the best app for dating, and for social life stuff in general. Dating apps aren't very popular, and Hellotalk is a bit noisy (I talk about some of the cons in another thread). Almost everyone uses Rednote
A few people on the forum have blown up on Rednote back when a bunch of foreigners were using it for a bit after Tiktok shut down for a bit. I think it might just be as simple as spamming a million thirst trap selfies like a narcy tbh. Chinese people do the same thing and get like 2 likes though lol.
It's just interesting how hyper adaptive the algorithm is compared to something like Instagram. If you like 1 pic about a certain niche, certain location, etc. you'll instantly start seeing content relevant to it on your Explore page (and it'll gradually fade out too if you go on liking other things). I think you could become a local celebrity on this app, for better or worse. I liked a single pic about a certain scene in a certain city and voila I'm getting random posts about the exact same thing; sometimes pics of the same people but on different accounts.
This is basically the only video on Youtube
So does anyone have any insight as for what you need to become chad on rednote so you can slide in DMs and get concubines?
I’m noticing 1 problem using Hellotalk, at least for Chinese girls… the vast majority of profiles are whack
Only a very small fraction of them has:
Looks like IRL game is the only consistent solution… only real 中文的人 china-boos will survive
- A profile picture that isn’t blatantly some celebrity or whatever; Chinese people use regular-looking non-famous people as their PFP if it’s aesthetic lol
- has photos in their Moments so you can verify their profile picture is even them, let alone not filtermaxxed to oblivion. And even then they might have pictures of some random in their Moments
- is actually 6/10+ and isn’t using uncanny alien filters (not that they actually make them any more attractive the majority of the time)
- and of course, is actually in your city. Some kind of “Japan ≈ Tokyo” thing probably makes it a lot more streamlined when using it for Japanese, I imagine
... all that being said though, obviously that tells you how easy it is to set yourself apart because it's probably a lot more of the same for guys. AKA a lot of the stuff that was discussed in OP
