In a separate post, a male user expressed frustration after RedNote censored a photo of his upper body. “Why can’t I post photos of my fitness and abs?” he asked, adding he had “never had such a problem on TikTok and Instagram.”

A Chinese user suggested that he try covering his nipples, as Chinese social media platforms generally impose restrictions on displaying them when it is perceived as sexually suggestive.

Oof ouch my male privilege

Oof I’m glad to see we are learning the right lessons from this.

[–] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 4 points 1 day ago

Meh, that's just a cultural difference

[–] weststadtgesicht@discuss.tchncs.de 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sure, the problem is, that male nipples are allowed in the West, not the other way round...

Equality is equality 🤷🏻‍♂️

Either we ban male nipples or let female nipples fly. Both would then be equal. One way would just be more fun than the other.

[–] SatanClaus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 day ago

I for one fully support women nipples flying.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The fact that one would be more fun than the other implies that equality (on that front) isn't in the cards.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Covering all nipples: Not fun.

Exposing all nipples: Fun.

I'm pansexual; all nipples are fun. But only when they're free.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 1 points 15 hours ago

Ah, I got you now. At least that's consistent.

Try testing your "fediverse freedom" on .ml and see how long your account lasts.

[–] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

.ml =/= Fediverse

That's like saying:

China = Planet Earth

Goes to an app made by the CCP and gets censorship. Who saw that one coming? /s

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Tiktok....we got Loops. Just sign up!

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Loops isn't as good and xiahongshu is fun in a seperate way than tiktok

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I love how separately fun you must be.

[–] airportline@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

It's still in closed beta. You can't "just sign up."

[–] revv@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

You can. You sign up on the website, you get an email telling you to install the app a day or two later. It's a very open "closed beta"

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And on Android, you just have to download the apk. I believe the delay is just a Testpilot thing.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Do they have their own app now?

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 hours ago

Do you mean Loops?

[–] airportline@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 day ago

Huh. I’ll do that later today then

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 28 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Really because I’m also seeing that LGBTQIA+ posting on rednote is accepted so which is it guys? Let’s find out

[–] morrowind@lemmy.ml 43 points 2 days ago

They're scrambling to hire more mods, especially for english rn, so I wouldn't pass judgement yet

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There's tons of it, even in Chinese so I call bullshit
