Title.
Some are calling Loops (https://pixelfed.social/loops) the FediTok (Federated TikTok). What’s your personal stance on this?

Short form content without a profix-maximizing algorithm pushing it to you does sound interesting, not gonna lie
Yeah, I can’t do Instagram or TikTok because within 3 videos I’m either getting something inflammatory or selling something. An algorithmically neutral version would be amazing.
This confuses me. You want something without an algorithm… because you used systems before their algorithm kicked in and hated it?
The crap you got was because it didn’t know enough about you to know what you like. Without an algorithm, that’d be your feed forever.
It’s not that they don’t want an algirithm. They just don’t want one that’s profit motivated.
Bröthër may I have some lööps
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.
Ofc! That’s what I use them for haha, destressing.
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.
What’s your profile? Let me drop you a follow!
They are working on loops but yet Pixelfed doesn’t have push notifications yet.
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 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?
