I don't really need any form of TikTok im afraid

I signed up for Loops the first day. I didn't get an email confirmation until two days after, and I still haven't been given a way to sign in.

(insert here the "The TikTok at home" meme format) So actually I did my own with PeerTube (self hosted server side) and Latrix (mobile client to live stream) and you can see the result at https://video.benetou.fr/w/p/hfPcHz1kCgnM6zKhfPrS4b (playlist of 6 short videos with progress over time).

I'd argue it... works. Is it necessary or useful? Well I didn't keep up with the format but it potentially can be. My point being... we already have quite a few tools in place.

Lemmy’s final boss..

Then again, Lemmy and ActivityPub are (by design) wide open to anyone, including TenCent

I wanted an account, verification email is not arrived.

The waiting list is still very long at this point. Probably don't expect to get in for like 2 weeks...

The first round of applications are for ios only, android has to wait, would have liked to have known that information before I spent the last week waiting.
