    Honestly? I don’t think it’s ready for the migration that’s going to take place in January (supposedly, January). The USA will ban TikTok and people still debate in the comments what should be the new short videos platform. I really want to spread the message about Loops, but I was unable to create an account just a few days ago. It won’t work for thousands and thousands of people that want something efficient and do not appreciate the Fediverse effort as we do.

    Mastodon itself couldn’t compete against BlueSky. I think Loops has a month to be a real TikTok alternative or it faces the same destiny as Mastodon (or Lemmy).

      Yeah, it’s totally not ready for that amount of influx. To be fair, it’s not even out of beta. I don’t think even the dev would claim it’s ready for that scale yet. Hopefully it’ll be ready the next time an event like that happens
