I want to like Loops but I kinda do not like the lack of a recommendation system (I do understand why they don't tho). And also it needs more users to actually have content. I keep checking it every once in a while, but 90% of what I scroll through are nothing but nature shots with the other 10℅ being extreme political hot takes or just (bad) memes ripped straight from tiktok.

Everything has to start somewhere.

The "Explore" tab always has the same 12 videos. Look at it again 6 months later, same videos.

Makes sense. It was in pre-alpha.

Now that it's in alpha, you'll have 13.

Once it hits beta, it'll skyrocket to an even 20.

I remember when he announced that videos could be uploaded from the website next week...he said that in February. In August, he said it would be possible soon. There was an instance (loops.gay) that allowed you to do that, but it disappeared.
