  • It is fun, it’s less brain rot than tiktok, closer to what pixelfed and Instagram is but even then it is different, I think it’s more like Pinterest or pixiv but for every day shit

    Privacy wise, you’re assigned a country by your IP and in china specifically it shows your exact region, you can view posts based on proximity.

    You’ll have your data harvested for recommendations obviously, but the ads don’t seem to have this happen to them, they don’t seem to feed their data to ads so they’re all very general and based on what you searched up instead

    I think xiahongshu is better than tiktok in terms of privacy, but the censorship I do not know about, but I haven’t been blocked yet.

    You can try it out, you lose nothing by doing so, just know it’s nearly all Chinese




  • It provides alternative opportunities for advancing beyond traditional schooling which would’ve been a slow burn if it was only public schooling that was present

    It also leads to more competitive practices whether it’s studying or teaching alternative sectors to children earlier than public schools would

    In nations with limited budgets it also means it’s the only option for studying opportunities, where if removed it would essentially mean that education would be worse than subpar

    But, taken to an extreme, this would lead to places like USA which gave too much power to private institutions

    What I want is a mix, give and take, force those who take the money to actually use it well and give my children, my nephew’s or those brought in with scholarships to prosper, but also allow for public institutions to benefit by having them adopt practices, make better use of funds and also incentivise cooperation
