Honestly, this whole thing is a mess... first a countdown, then a website with basically no information and that's only the start.

More than 24 hours after signing up, I finally got an email with just about zero information:

Hi @dfyx,

We're thrilled to welcome you to Loops.video!

We're in the process of onboarding all our new users, and we can't wait for you to experience the magic of short looping video.

Keep an eye out for another email from us later tonight or tomorrow (depending on when you signed up). It will have all the details you need to get started, including how to create your first Loop.

Welcome to the Loops community!

Regards, The Loops Team

And from some random comment that dansup made on pixelfed I found out that this beta is only for Android. Apparently, iOS will come later and there is no info on a browser-based version. That info should have been on the website. Also, what about selfhosting? This is the fediverse after all...
