I keep seeing ads for it and everything looks very cheap. Are the products any good?

    No and you should honestly be ashamed to be promoting such an environmentally irresponsible, shitty Chinese company.

      Felt like an honest question to me. I’d rather people ask about scams and get real information than stay ignorant and possibly rope others into it.

        I thank the OP for giving us the opportunity to call out a company so singularly bad for the future of humanity…but it did remind me a lot of astroturfing-style marketing I’ve seen on other social media.

        Yeah feels like an honest question as well to me. I don’t get all the downvotes and hate for this post. It doesn’t seem anything like shilling. I’ve never shopped Temu but I’ve seen the ads, made my assumptions, and now this discussion gives me more information on it rather than doing trial/error. How is a question like this a bad thing?

        I do understand the visceral responses based off Temu’s most likely lack of safety and ethics, but at the end of the day it’s everyone’s own personal call on how responsible they want to be with their purchases - caveat emptor I guess.
