TikTok ban protests: US users migrate to new Chinese-owned app

There are increasing efforts from both the incoming president Donald Trump and Democratic senators to prevent TikTok's ban in the US.
The app's users are protesting its potential shutdown, by migrating to another Chinese-owned social media platform, called RedNote.

Al Jazeera’s Katrina Yu reports from Beijing.

lol. Chinese be like: "Oh look, all these Americans came here to our app because they love China."
Meanwhile Americans be like: "This is our app now. BTW, want to talk about politics? Because I feel like talking about politics."
