TikTok's newly-formed US entity is off to a very bumpy start, frustrated users are increasingly deleting the app as interest in UpScrolled, an independent social app is growing.

    for anyone looking for an activitypub alternative check out loops.video. based on the same tech as lemmy, piefed, mbin, mastodon, pixelfed, etc.

        You can’t, but you could comment or “like” loops.videos if they come across your feed. I’m on mastodon and have seen a few come through. No need to even have an account on loops, the beauty of the fediverse.

        No, sadly. I think there was some cross over with pixelfed, as the creator makes both. But Simply using the same protocol is not enough to use the same log in. Some day in the utopic fediverse future, it could be that it seamlessly caries over, but we are still building that future.

      Are you illiterate, or did you comment without reading the provided link?

      Edit: people not reading the source is what turns us into reddit, you stupid cunts.

        In the amount of time it took you to type that, you could have been helpful, instead.

        Your mum needs to teach you how to be respectful. The reason I asked is so that whoever read the article and write it so others dont have to click on the link.

        Say Hi to your mum from me. She’s obedient and respects  her MASTER- THE GAYMER
