A domestic Chinese-style SNS called 'Tai-Tai' has been launched, where users can only post fake Chinese characters full of kanji, and it is anonymous and free, no registration required, and is compatible with both Apple and Android devices.



On social media, you can often see fake Chinese posts that consist only of Chinese characters, such as 'I quit my job immediately' or 'I want to have 500 trillion yen.' A message board called ' Tui-duo (Twitia) ' has been released specifically for fake Chinese posts, so I decided to try it out.

I created a fake Chinese bulletin board called 'Many to Many'.

To-Many has been released for iOS and Android . This time, we will use the iOS version.

First, open the one-to-many distribution page on the App Store and tap 'Get.'



Once the installation is complete, tap 'Open' to launch the app.



When you first start the app, you will be asked to agree to the terms of use and privacy policy, so read them carefully and then tap 'Start'. This is the last screen where proper Japanese is displayed on the multi-party app.



To Many is a service that allows users to create 'topics,' which are equivalent to threads on a bulletin board, and to post and read comments on each topic. The initial screen displays three 'official topics' created by To Many's developers. To try it out, tap on the topic 'First post practice. What was for dinner yesterday?' (First post practice topic. What was for dinner yesterday?)'.



A large number of users posted in fake Chinese about what they had for dinner the previous night. Although it was all in Chinese characters, it was clear that the posts were about things like 'I ate fried udon noodles' and 'I'm so happy I ate hotpot!'. To the right of each post are buttons for expressing emotions such as 'grass,' 'very funny,' and 'hilarious,' as well as buttons for expressing emotions such as 'good' and 'highly rated,' and candy buttons for expressing emotions such as 'poor thing,' 'I sympathize with you,' and 'cheer up.' Each button can be tapped as many times as one person wants.



To add a post, tap the orange button at the bottom right of the screen.



When the new post screen opens, tap the toggle switches next to 'Do you understand that posting personal information is prohibited?' and 'Do you understand the terms of use?' to turn them ON.



Next, you can post by entering the content of your post and tapping the post button at the bottom right. However, even if you type 'I ate gyudon last night,' the post button remains grayed out and you cannot tap it. This means that you cannot post text that contains a mixture of hiragana and katakana.



Once you've deleted the hiragana and filled it with kanji, the post button will be tappable. Note that symbols like '.', ',', and '!' are OK.



Your posts will appear in orange.



Topics created by users are grouped under 'New Topics' and 'Popular Topics.' I found a popular topic called 'Good Weekly Shonen Jump Manga,' which seemed to be about Weekly Shonen Jump, so I tapped on it.



Users were talking about their favorite manga in kanji.



To create your own topic, tap '+' in the top right corner of the screen.



Enter the title of the topic and tap 'Create New.' Of course, you must enter it in kanji.



The topics you create will appear in the 'New Topics' section.



Unlike typical bulletin boards, you don't have to post the first reply yourself.



However, using only the title makes it difficult for other users to understand what kind of post they should add, so it's safer to post the first response yourself.



Tap 'You' at the bottom of the screen to view a list of topics and posts you have created. On this screen, you can check the reactions to your posts and also delete each post.



Addendum 1: December 14, 2024 16:54
At the moment, even if you launch the one-to-many feature, the topics are not displayed. According to the creator, the service is temporarily suspended due to server costs. The service is scheduled to resume after the implementation of adding advertisements and reducing server costs is completed.




Addendum 2: December 18, 2024, 15:53
To-many service has resumed. App update required.




In addition, due to a review of back-end processing, all past logs before the server was shut down have been deleted.
