Did you try it ? How was it ? Tell us everything you think of this new Fediverse platform!
yay thanks for reminding me. i had the application going for a while and forgot about it. just uploaded my first loop! i’m too old and “scared” for tiktok, so i love giving this a shot
I can’t make an account yet :(
The webpage OP linked says “We’re not accepting new users at this time.”, so it’s not surprising. They need additional instances to take on the burden of actually hosting the content, as they continue the software development.
I signed up for an account, but when I go to login it says I’m using the wrong credentials. I’m using a password manager so I don’t think that is possible. Tried a few times now, and even tried to register again. Anyone seeing the same issue?
I believe you still need to wait for your account to be confirmed, you will receive an email after sometime I believe.
How long is some time, are we talking hours or days?
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)
Yes, the app is reaaaally rough, and it really needs a web version (even TikTok has a web version)
Nails the experience of mindless scrolling entertainment, for better or for worse. Definitely still a beta product, stuff like dark mode and skipping already-seen videos haven’t been implemented afaik. Still fun though. Hopefully there will be some way of interacting with it that doesn’t just contribute to lowest-common denominator videos, and can push interesting and thought-provoking content above silly cat videos.
