The difference on what's considered easy level sewing on XHS vs YouTube is stark;
YouTube: This sharp thing is called a 'needle', 'nee-dle'
*close up on a needle*
XHS: Meh! Why buy paper pattern? Just make your own!
*several complicated - yet translated - diagrams of pants with fittings*
Yes, I exagerate, but not that much.
(Also; eight section brocade practice is qigong - don't make my mistake XD )
Signs XHS's algorithm is a bit confused, but got the spirit; I've looked at so many Chinese exchange students' posts* I'm now getting tips on how to immigrate to Sweden.
(*I do this mostly for two reasons; character design background research, and to check that we behave.)
I shouldn't be surprised that a good kang is a bragging item! And _boy_ would I want one too! This looks seriously cosy! (Especially since the cost is 1/10th of a Swedish tile oven.)

Serious young woman flashing by on my XHS feed: Why are you single?
Me: Because I'd rather stab myself in the eye than get a new man. NEXT!
Hmmm... I wonder if @liztai has seen the guy who's (justifiably) got his abs as a profile pic?

XHS algorithm is oddly specific at times. Due to liking two videos my feed is now filled with Heng Dian World Studios extras showing off how many lunchboxes* there's left at the end of the day.
(*production pays for lunch - usually pre-packed "tv dinners", but sometimes a few choices of stew)
Of all the strange stuff I've found on RedNote I think the Sanxingdui labubu takes the cake.
Whoa! Setting up RedNote/XHS was a trip! Lovely place, but I hadn't counted on it being so much of a Culture Schock From The Comfort Of Your Own Home. If you want to follow me at XHS I'm MarthaCrimson - I'll probably focus more on my art there.
