You know what's pretty cool? rabble, the developer of divine.video sent a pull request to Loops to improve federation between Divine and Loops. Collaboration and connection, no matter where you are. You love to see it ❤️ github.com/joinloops/lo... #Loops #Divine #ActivityPub #Collaboration

the best part of the #OpenSourceAwards was @rude1.blacksky.team talk about BlackSky!! What an absolute legend, he even gave praise to the fedi and how ATP was influenced by it. Really love everything he's doing, and makes me proud to be involved with forward thinking people in the open social web.

I look forward to exploring ATProto support to connect Loops to more parts of the social web. The future is open, accessible and ethical. 🚀

Loops is Now on the App Store! blog.joinloops.org/loops-is-now...

1 year. 2 apps. An ecosystem of ethical alternatives. 🌱 Instagram -> Pixelfed: apps.apple.com/us/app/pixel... Tiktok -> Loops: apps.apple.com/us/app/loops... Open Source. Federated. Free.

The ad-free, algorithm-free, data collection-free TikTok alternative, Loops, is now available in the App Store. apps.apple.com/us/app/loops... More about the app: joinloops.org #loops #fediverse #TikTok

Loops is Now on the App Store! blog.joinloops.org/loops-is-now...

Here's one for anyone looking for a not evil alternative to #TikTok. @dansup.bsky.social, the developer behind the BlueSky-compatible photo sharing app @pixelfedapp.bsky.social, has created a new app called Loops.video It's ad free, community owned, and not under Trump-mandated ownership.

Our iOS app has been submitted to the App Store for review! 🥳

Every TikTok "alternative" is just another VC-funded data harvesting machine cosplaying as your friend. Why is joinloops.org the only real open source option? Because surveillance capitalism pays better than freedom. If it's not open source, you're not the user, you're the product being sold.

madeincanada.social now features a revamped Operated in Canada section (with banners), and a new Social Infrastructure section with @gandersocial.bsky.social and @transrights.northsky.social, thanks to @thisismissem.social suggestion. Let's go Canada 🇨🇦 🚀

Encouraging healthy habits is fundamental to an ethical alternative That is why we are working on a Screen Time feature that is enforced across web and apps, allowing you to set your own limits We can reclaim short video sharing for humanity, and make it better, together joinloops.org/our-mission

Loops + Skylight + diVine = cross platform short videos, for everyone. The dev of diVine is interested in cross platform interop, and with Bridgy, we could bridge Skylight too. The revolution won't be centralized ❤️ joinloops.org via ActivityPub skylight.social via ATproto divine.video via Nostr

Trans people deserve safety, dignity, and joy. Today we remember those we’ve lost and recommit to fighting for those who are here. Stand up, speak out, and show your support. Trans rights are human rights — say it, mean it, and back it with action. #transgenderDayOfRemembrance

Duets. Coming soon to Loops. React side-by-side or stacked with creators across the fediverse. Record your take on any supported Loop and join the conversation. #loops #Duets #loopsDuets
