What the fuck did I just watch? Is this the kind of shit that's all over tiktok?

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, if Loops is the fediverse answer to TikTok then I wanna know who asked cuz they need a slap.

[–] harsh3466@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 days ago

No kidding. I get it's a meme or whatever and that people don't wear that kind of shit, but if this is the pointless drivel that's got people glued to tiktok, good God.

I mean, loops just became available, and I have seen two videos of this user in a time span of 30 minutes. Given that the videos have a certain production value (they're edited, there is music, proper lighting etc.) these videos were made by someone that was already doing this before loops and is now simply expanding their outreach to a new platform, so I would expect the content to be similar - whatever has worked for them previously, they're testing the waters without investing additional effort to adapt to a potentially different target audience.

Maybe loops will be different and the userbase will over time express a completely different taste in content, maybe not.

As I see it, I get to experience new forms of content, hopefully without the negative connotations that TikTok brought along, which I never got into.

Do I need to watch someone glue a condom to their shoes and surround their feet with fries for push a lame word pun to 11? Probably not. But I'm sure there will be different things, too.

This vid was one of the reasons I suggested a dislike button to loops 😆

(The other reason were vids of people treating animals super disrespectful and I'm not sure the animal was well after that.)

Is there a way to give something a up vote and a down vote?
