There’s a fediverse alternative made by same people who have made pixelfed called Loops Link
Loops is even less federated that Blue Sky, meaning not at all. (It's on the roadmap, though.)
Given the track record of blue sky and pixelfed, I would out my money on pixelfed.
Loops has some work if it ever wants to really blow up. I crashed constantly while using it the other day, and it's feature set needs work. It has potential though.
Have you used loops? I tried to sign up and its been ~6 hours without a verification email. Its great they have a testflight app on iOS but I've been looking for an android apk with no luck. I really want a federated tik tok to blow up but I'm finding it hard to even get set up.
I used it and it's very disappointing, the content feels like that old website that showed you YouTube videos with 0 views.
Yeah, it's an impressive tech showcase for such a small Dev team... But it's pretty lackluster as a tiktok replacement.
That verify email will come, but don't expect a mountain of quality content once it does
It'll probably be another day or two before you get the email. It'll have a link to an APK to download.
Good to know, thanks!
its been 2 days, they should at least let content creators of any kind have priority to get some stuff on the platform, I was gonna say link your tiktok to the signup if its manual verification but thats gone lmao
one thing red note nails is easily letting you use the background music of another video for your video, that bare minimum needs to be in loops
Tho Cuban is asking specifically for ATProto. Guess loops could pivot lol
Isn't loops just the pixelfed instance run by the developer?
