Loops is a new platform for sharing short videos, and it's open source + federated using #ActivityPub
We're really excited to share this sneak peek that showcases the new onboarding flow and discovery features (Connect Mastodon) and look forward to the upcoming beta release!
Are you ready for #Loops ?
Dansup is seriously great at designing social platforms. I don’t have much personal use for it, as I never cared for instagram, but I think Pixelfed is the best designed platform on the Fediverse. I’m sure Loops will be great too. Fantastic name too.
I think lemmy is the best one on the fediverse as i have tried most of em and only lemmy feels really polished, usable, better than all alternatives etc but yeah its personnel preferance i guess .
Kudos to the guy for doing stuff + it being FOSS, but I wouldn’t call him “great at designing social platforms”. Pixelfed is fediverse instagram, loops is fediverse tiktok
Pretty much everything on the fediverse is just a clone of another social media. Pixelfed still has the most intuitive design for new users and a great onboarding process. Took Mastodon a while to catch up.
Yea part of the point in designing these alternatives (to my understanding) is that the userbase can feel immediately at home, there is little barrier to entry

I like lemmy’s design, but I thought it’s user onboarding process was pretty bad when I joined. It’s much better since the join-lemmy.org redesign.
I use the Sync app to enjoy Lemmy, and I miss a design revamp on the official Lemmy front-end UI for Web when I’m using a desktop.
Yeah, the name is really good.

Just wait 'til you find out that Lemmy is also a fediverse clone of a toxic platform
