Anyone know if they’ve actually open sourced everything yet? I haven’t kept up with things and I know that was an issue for a while
it’d be cool if their android app could get updated. and they fix the feed from just showing you the same string of videos constantly.
other than those two things im sure it will be awesome.
I appreciate this. unfortunately Loops imho is lacking too many features for me to try again at this time.
but its nice to know an app is getting updates now!
Or impleme ting the fundamental feature of searching videos by keywords and hashtags
I have been doing some uploading there for a few mths. My biggest gripe is that they support 60 second videos, but anything over 15 seconds (for me) never finishes uploading.
I have seen the repeats too though.
I see a lot of these threads praising loops and i have never been able to use it effectively despite my efforts. =( and I have really wanted it to.
I am curious about the length restriction as well. I wonder if these are all things they’re going to address and fix. but you’d think they’d have done all that before making announcements and whatnot.
Its nice to have choices.
I believe they have - announced a few weeks ago.
I think someone told me in another thread a while back discussing loops that that was only like certain libraries and whatnot?
I’m not an especially technical person so I don’t really remember details though 😅
No they were right - but now it's the whole server so people can stand up their own.
Is this real? Seems like pretty strange data. Maybe it’s displayed wrong?
The app look like an alpha or less. Barely usable
Still 31k don’t try something if that is true
To be fair…
I did the thing where I signed up and got the app and promptly never used it
I don’t particularly like short form content (at all) but I was hoping that there’d be some relevant connection between the platforms
Weird…
It launched without being decentralized and without federation. Might've been a mistake.
But it can’t be right that twenty thousand users stop like the same day? It’s gotta be some error
I had no idea what Loops was. Nice I guess, though short form content is just not something with which I want to engage.
Would you say you were… out of the loops? 🌞 😎
No. No I would not.
I don’t mind short form, but I loathe vertical videos. But I guess these days those are basically 1 in the same.
Yeah, short form content isn’t really my cup of tea either. I’m glad it exists though :)
Nice.

Would be nice if they could work on their iOS app. Right now it’s functionality is so bad I dont even want to use it
