Loops aims to be an open Fediverse alternative to TikTok, Snapchat, and Vine. We take an early look at the app, and talk about what it's like!

Oh nice, the Android app is out!

I can give it a try now

Link to download page within the account settings, for those that have been onboarded already: https://loops.video/dashboard/get-the-app

Edit: it feels very smooth

Yeah the app seems quite polished already around the video viewing experience at least. Wonder how it populates the default feed.

Yeah since there is little content I can’t tell if there is an algorithm or not.

Edit; I tried posting myself to see and the “feed” is a “new” feed of posts by everyone. So no sort of algorithm at all or any customisation available atleast on the ios app, as of now.

I downloaded it without needing an account first (You do need an account to use the actual app), maybe just go on loops.video
