I’m letting this post, the comment below are interesting :)
funding from Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey
I’m sure nothing bad will happen.
Be a lot cooler if it wasn’t Jack Dorsey
Would be cool if this federates with Loops
Loops doesn’t even federate with other Loops instances, lol.
On https://divine.video/ there is a mention of Nostr, so it could be decentralized although not really considered to a part of the fediverse by most people.
It’s in the fediverse if by “fediverse” you mean “blockchain”.
Nostr doesn’t use blockchain though?
Doesn’t Loops federate now? I think it was a recent update
Maybe? https://loops.fediverse.observer/list shows 4 instances other than loops.video (with 8, 4, 1, 1 users on each), so make of that what you will.
I wonder when all those kickstarter supporters are going to start asking questions.
Found the announcement
Man, I wish PieFed had marketing like that. Slick.
At https://loops.video/ I browsed the comments on some videos, I found 2 comments from Mastodon, one of them the loops dev. So technically federation is happening.
We can maybe ask on [email protected] is someone can help to write an update blog post similar to this
I still see a lot of “how is Piefed different from Lemmy” questions, so there’s definitely potential improvements in awareness
Good idea :)
I wanted Loops to work but I just don’t see it taking off, it’s too niche with no mass appeal. I scrolled through the Popular page and the most-liked post was a Minecraft meme with only 162 likes. The second was a video someone reposted from Instagram with 90
Loops can be a social network for deaf people. :)
In what way is AI content moderated? 95% of people already cant tell the difference.
Like every other social media probably: barely
And not just AI content.
Another brainless social media sight.
Jack Dorsey/Vine? So this is an American company.
Made by Jack Dorsey… but there’s no app that I could find in the Play Store.
Not sure how he’s expecting it to take off if the normies expect apps instead of typing it into a browser.
Tried using their website and you can’t sign up with email even, so it feels kinda half baked right now unless you’re a Nostr user, which I don’t even know what that is.
