There's now a Fediverse alternative to TikTok called Loops. It's currently in beta testing so it is rough round the edges, but you can sign up and try it for yourself. More info at:

@FediTips @DavidGoldfield @loops @dansup does anyone if this is accessible?

Perhaps @dansup would be best placed to comment?

@roaratron @FediTips @loops @dansup I wondered the same thing as soon as I read this but I haven't had time to test it.

Someone else just asked too, I'll copy you into the thread in case we get a response from the developer about accessibility features.

Fair enough!
Also, people on Mastodon and Loops can follow each other and interact with each other, so there's no need to switch platforms unless you really want to.
You only need a Loops account if'n you want to make videos, any account will work to watch them

@FediTips @NoRomBasic @loops @dansup Maybe it'll give TikTok users a place to go.

I have zero interest in short form videos. -

@FediTips Several loops servers? So far, I've only seen the flagship one and vido.social. Is there a list already?

@Radgryd Yup, there are some listed at https://fedidb.com/software/loops
Note that this isn't a curated list, I cannot vouch for the quality or reliability of these servers. It's just a raw list

The good thing about the Fediverse is you don't have to use platforms but you can still follow and interact with people who do use those platforms
So, people who like Mastodon can use Mastodon, people who like Loops can use Loops, and they can all follow each other despite being on different platforms.

I have zero interest in short form videos.Yup, that's the idea of the Fediverse, everyone uses the platform that suits them best but they can still follow and interact with each other even if they're on different platforms.

That's the way to go. Short form = brain rot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdIUMkXxtHg

@stardust @FediTips @NoRomBasic @loops @dansup Interesting video. Thanks for sharing it!
I'd like to see more long-term tests. I suspect they will show that the problem is even worse.
