You can only watch like 10 videos without an account. And no search.
No thanks!
Thanks for pointing this out.
This "sign up to view" nonsense needs to end. Whoever suggested it should be tarred and feathered.
Is that just for the loops.video instance, I wonder? Maybe alternative instances allow you to watch without logging in?
Not sure to be honest. I couldn’t find a list of instances.
I might consider the video format platform if they ease the login requirements and allow 3rd party apps which allow you to choose what instance to connect.
