    It’s a pretty bold move to launch an open source service like this, especially one that is as complex as a video sharing site. One would think a gradual increase of user base would be easier to handle than a sudden influx of people at a moment when one has been scrambling to meet a deadline.

    Good thing they/he is not afraid of postponing the release and making sure it’s ready. And if it works well it will be one hell of a release. Fingers crossed. :)

      I’m excited, I love how information dense and educational short form content can be.

        Our kids hardly get an education as it is. When those who hate paying their fair share of taxes throw a fit, politicians always make sure that they get to voice their opinions, publicly and loudly.

        Makes you wonder: who’s buying all of these politicians? And it’s always the Republicans trying to take your rights away from you.

          Hmm so Loops by Pixelfed is a GOP psyops to take my rights away? Scary stuff.

            That’s a leap even our Olympic gymnasts knew better than to try.

      I wasn’t sure whether I’ll say something similar or I’ll keep it to myself

      Hopefully the Fediverse will be able to have a better take on how to do shortform video than other platforms.

    Why not. I know a lot of people are into this.

    I’m personally not interested in seeing video clips on Pixelfed, so I hope they can be hidden in account settings.

    But respect to Pixelfed developers who seem to do a great job - it’s awesome.

    Edit: looked properly at loops and it looks like it’s a totally separate thing to Pixelfed. Happy days!
