Loops are for short duration videos (max 30 seconds) and is a separate app/platform from Pixelfed.

We're also working with @stux and his project so the fediverse will have many options to choose from.

Loops is more like Vine, simple and short, for longer videos we think Goldfish and/or PeerTube can meet your needs.

This is the amazing thing about the fediverse, instead of competing with Goldfish, I'm mentoring/helping them.

In the fediverse, we all win, no matter the platform.

@dansup @stux @pixelfed so is this going to be like shorts on YouTube or like TikTok’s??? I wonder if there could be a way to link accounts so your shorts (loops) show up in your Peertube feed.

@dansup @stux I did remember #vine but never used it and was very popular. Just call it vine, rather loops. #BringBackVine

A while ago I've set my focus back on web dev again and mainly the Goldfish concept πŸ’ͺ

Currently I'm busy getting fully back into the code with courses so that we can rewrite the front- and backend in the right away with a seperation and API :blobcathearts:

@dansup @stux Vine was so great until Twitter ate it alive, didn't know what to do with it, and killed it. IOW Twitter has always sucked, they've just moved from benevolent sucking to malevolent sucking.

@dansup I know you just said "max 30 seconds" but you also said "Vine" and I was always very impressed with how much creativity can be squeezed into just 6 seconds.

I would love to see 10 seconds or less as the default.
