Show HN: I built a tool to add Chinese subtitles to videos for Red Note (captioner.io)

Hi HackerNews!

Due to the recent TikTok ban, we have seen a big surge of English-speaking users coming into Red Note (Xiaohongshu), the Chinese social media app. As a user on the platform and a software developer, I really enjoy the fresh content on there and it was eye-opening for me.

I noticed that the videos being uploaded by TikTok Refugees usually do not have Chinese subtitles, or have poorly translated ones. So I went ahead and put together a free tool to help add a clear Chinese translation onto the videos.

It has been fun seeing these new videos and sharing new ideas and thoughts with more people. I want to be able to share them with my family like my father (who loves fishing and gardening) and my girlfriend (who enjoys baking a lot). I hope my tool can help inspire people between US and China. Cheers!
