I’m waiting for algorithm. And start promoting it in the United States in the event of TikTok not going to sell.

Great platform name. Though I like the idea, but it’s currently only one developer. It’s the same dev behind Pixelfed. He’s a good dev, but I feel like he’s stretching himself too thin to make both platforms the amount of development they need to pick up steam.

Stretched too thin is an understatement.
Between Pixelfed, Sup, Loops, FediDB, fediverse.info, PubKit, all that comes with developing those, his main job, and whatever else he has cooking, I don’t like being so heavily dependent on the whims of one dev. I have mad respect for him and everything he has done, but this situation is definitely limiting the growth of the platforms, contributions to those platforms, and his general decision making on what to develop and how to prioritize.
I try to be optimistic because in the end what he’s doing is a net positive, but we’re going to need more than one man’s raw coding talent. That’s why although I’m exited for Loops, I’m tempering my expectations and expecting a cap on the popularity and adoption of Loops like with Pixelfed unless something changes.

I mean, it’s open source, right? Be the change etc.
