I don’t know if you have heard, but Loops.video is a Reels/Tiktok like app from the creator of Pixelfed. I recall it being announced, and checked just now on a whim. All of a sudden, it appears pretty close to ready to launch!

    I’ll be passing on that.

    I don’t enjoy my content being the same format as advertising.

    Glad to hear of any federated internet updates though.

      Do you feel the same way about Mastadon? Twitter was the “look at me” social media. I feel like you just shout things into the void and people give you points for agreeing with you. Its impossible to carry on a real conversation on Twitter (a proper threaded message board like Lemmy excels at this). It seems tied in with the cult of personality whereas we need to shift to a culture of ideas.

      I’m probably just a stupid millennial who doesn’t get it, but Lemmy seems like the only really good fediverse structure.

        Yes.

        I’m not sure that’s my reason, but I’ve never understood Twitter/Mastodon. It’s just shouting into a void.
