Loops is out now, let's discuss !
Loops, explore and share short videos on the fediverse. Available soon!
Did you try it ? How was it ? Tell us everything you think of this new Fediverse platform!
The experience was not so good. Not usable.
Yes it's really rough for now.. I really hope it get better soon
Any Android app yet?
Yes there is! Loging to you account on loops.video and download the apk
It's ok for how early it is but it needs a lot of work still (and content)
Basically I'm interested but 99% of my screen time is on desktop, so I wanted to ask if there is any roadmap about a fully functional web interface? Anyone knows? Right now the website is just a dashboard to manage my account and nothing else, at least for me.
Yes, for now it will be really focussed on a mobile-first experience, but imo they HAVE to have a web version, to at least share videos to people who don't have the app yet!
I received the e-mail but it said it was only for the iOS version, and I'm on android.
If you log in to the website you can download the APK now
The android version has been out too!
Why do people enjoy content structured the same ways as advertising?
The appeal of it (by my understanding, anyway) is that the content is more concise. It does it's thing quickly, and thus allows either briefer sessions with it (elevator ride, waiting for your food, etc.) or a session the same length but with a larger variety of content. With an algorithm (which loops doesn't currently have afaik) it also takes advantage of how your brain works in terms of dopamine being released.
What do you mean "like advertising" ? I feel that modern advertising just adapted from the content, not the other way around
Loops is just a federated TikTok, which is just corporatized vines with an algorithm.
