Is Loops ready for wide scale adoption and federation yet? We kinda need a replacement for tiktok, otherwise the addicts will jump to yet another Chinese platform.
People are already moving to rednote.
Doesn't look like it to me. I tried to sign up yesterday and haven't received the validation email.
Edit: and the UI was very barren and minimal on the video I watched.
There's a ton of domestic TikTok clones already, like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.
They already have.
Sadly it needs a lot of work, I went on it the other day and the app itself crashed at least seven times in the 15 minutes that I was using it
Nowhere near imo. Download the app and see for yourself. It needs WORK.
Link to download? I checked the Play store and there's a billion apps called Loops
Edit: I found it
