Out of curiosity is there a FOSS (add-free) short form video type social media? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I know of peertube, which is similar to youtube.

But is there anything that is similar to instgram reels, tiktok type stuff.

I imagine it doesn’t exist because the hosting costs would be exorbitant, but I’m curious incase something like it does?

loops.video is in development, from the same dev who did Pixelfed

Meanwhile I want more Foss video host services that do have ads. If I'm going to be archiving video footage somewhere, I want to know they can pay their bills

I don't understand the need really. I mean there is no minimum size. seems like it just need a duration option in search.

The difference is in the user demographic. You can't have an algorithm to satisfy both the YouTube audience and the TikTok audience.
