I never got into the short form video thing but anything to get more people onto the Fediverse is a good thing

Short form content without a profix-maximizing algorithm pushing it to you does sound interesting, not gonna lie

Bröthër may I have some lööps

I’m happy about any new features that draw more users to a federated alternative :)

I never got into vertical video, not my type of thing.

But if something like that is a way for someone to reduce stress or do anything in a bored moment, then why not.

I don’t watch reels, shorts, tiktoks or any other short for videos and Loops is not an exception. I moved from Instagram to Pixelfed for the sole purpose of getting atleast some audience for my photography since Instagram wants you to post videos instead.

They are working on loops but yet Pixelfed doesn’t have push notifications yet.

I’ve been waiting for something like this. A FOSS, federated TikTok alternative that doesn’t send my data to the Chinese and doesn’t sell it to data brokers sounds pretty great.

I was thinking about Loops earlier today. I’d love to implement Quiblr’s For You recommendation algorithm for Loops and see how it performs. I haven’t joined the beta though so not sure how baked it is yet

I’m more looking for a federated RPAN than a tiktok.

I was never into this type of content cayse I don’t wanna touch tiktok nor instagram. This does seem interesting though

I still haven’t figured out why people like them except to annoy everyone around them by playing the audio through their phone speakers.

How do I join the closed beta?
