It's a pretty bold move to launch an open source service like this, especially one that is as complex as a video sharing site. One would think a gradual increase of user base would be easier to handle than a sudden influx of people at a moment when one has been scrambling to meet a deadline.

Good thing they/he is not afraid of postponing the release and making sure it's ready. And if it works well it will be one hell of a release. Fingers crossed. :)

Federated LinkedIn would still be better than LinkedIn.

I’m excited, I love how information dense and educational short form content can be.

Its not about us its about migrating the global narrative to a free as in freedom platform.

Hopefully the Fediverse will be able to have a better take on how to do shortform video than other platforms.

I wasn't sure whether I'll say something similar or I'll keep it to myself

Every time you look, they add another day

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'll probably give it a try w curious to see what the content will look like

[–] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Why not. I know a lot of people are into this.

I'm personally not interested in seeing video clips on Pixelfed, so I hope they can be hidden in account settings.

But respect to Pixelfed developers who seem to do a great job - it's awesome.

Edit: looked properly at loops and it looks like it's a totally separate thing to Pixelfed. Happy days!
