Old Xian started posting quite a bit on xiaohongshu lately, including some stuff that is not shared via weibo. However, unlike weibo, you can make an account on XHS without the need of a CN phone number. XHS is available via app only - simply head to your smartphone store and download the xiaohongshu app (little red book) and follow all the steps to set up an account - the only tricky bit can occur when you are asked to provide the country code of your phone number. If you don't know how your country is written in hanzi, you have to scroll down the long list and just keep a look out for your country code and then click on it once you spotted it. The app is only available in CN, but navigating through it is quite simple since it is very similar to instagram. If you want to follow Old Xian on XHS, all you have to do is search for their profile number: 1805597541 and then simply click to follow :D [official art text translated by: https://twitter.com/maomaozaii ]

小红书 Vocab

小红书 (also referred to as xiaohongshu or XHS) is a Chinese image-based social media platform. It is a combination of the feed, likes, shopping, and video aspects of instagram, with the ~aesthetics~ and majority female audience of pintrest. I've grown really fond of it and found that it's algorithm is better than instagram and MUCH better than pintrest with giving me content I enjoy.

I'm going to offer some vocab that is either unique to the platform, or slang that is found on the platform (esp in bullet comments). I don't want this to be too long, so some terms may be omitted if they are found on many other social media apps

APP 小红书: Literally "Little Red Book". Probably a play off of Chairman Mao's book of speeches and writings which is also referred to as the Little Red Book. The app is not at all political, but more so trying to evoke the "essentiality" and "knowledge" aspect of the term. 笔记: Notes. XHS's name for its posts 收藏: Favorites. Separate from likes, these are bookmarked collections. This and Likes can be hidden 赞过: Likes. Notes that you "heart" will appear here. 关注: Notes from people you follow 发现: Discovery tab 附近: Recent notes
