Super cool. I am hoping that Loops will be easily integrated into Lemmy at some point to where it shows on my feed as if I were on loops with the setting option to auto-start or not, and when I upvote they get the heart.
Btw Admiral Patrick has embedded Loops videos at https://tesseract.dubvee.org/c/[email protected]. It’s a full embed of the video, though not full integration of Loops as you were saying - e.g. there’s no heart icon or comments, though he keeps adding more features to the embed like metadata display. Cool! 😎
That’s what I’m hoping, but from what I’ve noticed, most other federated platforms (Mastodon, Wordpress, etc) all seem to use the user-follow paradigm which Lemmy still doesn’t support.
Supposedly PeerTube follows work, but I only ever seem to get the initial fetch (though I can comment and vote on them from here, and those show up on PeerTube).
Ya I am hoping one day (hopefully soon) I’ll be able to scroll through my Lemmy feed and see a Mastodon/microblogging post (which I occasionally see) from some people I am able to follow, while I scroll past a Loops video, and some Pixelfed content too. Just full integration both ways. That will be the tipping point for federation to pop off once that happens, because then it doesn’t matter which federated service you choose you will have access to all the social media content types.
I had to go to the Loops page and copy the video URL from there, unfortunately (e.g it wasn’t a standard embed).
That test was just to primarily see if the video would embed at all and not be blocked by CORS or something.
Hopefully Loops will put the video URL in the metadata to make things easy. If not, I may attempt a workaround

Awesome. I’m going to try it out! Excited to see progress happen so fast
