It’s weird that so many people here aren’t aware of Loops. I’ve never had any interest in tiktok or anything like it, so I have never sought it out, and I see it mentioned both here on Lemmy and other places several times a week. Do people really just use only lemmy for anything fed and only view communities they subscribe to? That’s the only thing I can think of that would make them so shut off from everything.

So I am aware of loops by virtue of Lemmy posts often linking to videos on there.
However I never thought about what it was— I kind of assumed it was closer to YouTube or a free-er video-focused Imgur.
I’ll be honest I have no idea what the appeal is of tiktok and have never used it apart from a few times when links have been sent to me by friends.
So much like twitter to mastodon… I know it exists but I don’t quite understand why someone would want that.
