Loops is a federated alternative to TikTok created by Pixelfed. Once it first came out, users were able to sign up for early access. Confirmation emails weren’t sent right away, but today they announced that emails were being sent out, and registration is now closed.
I got a confirmation email today, attached in the image. I will be loosely documenting my experience, and may (no promises) make a writeup about it.
Yep, dozens of people use Fediverse. I’m sure this’ll be very popular.
I’m not sure popular is the biggest goal right now. It would definitely be nice for federated platforms to gain a bigger user base, but while the tools are growing, it’s really inspiring just to think that people are willing to invest the (low or no profit) time and energy into making the internet a nicer place.
Let’s not build anything because there are no users. There are no users if we don’t build anything.
Uh oh you angered 16 of the the 20 of us

As I look at this thing from the inside of the fedibubble, it looks like it’s going to be the best thing ever.
