There's a documentary People's Republic of Desire that I recommend to anyone who thinks China is pretty behind on tech and basically just a manufacturing giant. They're not. Social Streaming on Twitch for cheers & donations? Yeah, they've been doing it for years on their own platform.
I'm not surprised at all that they find international success. Any very large domestic market will create viral products and give their makers enough money and reach to go global.
- sushid 6y agoNo one in their right mind would say that they're behind on tech or just a manufacturing giant. The parent comment is merely stating that no Chinese app has enjoyed global success and that many of their apps are very janky with poor UI/UX (generalizing here of course).
