This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Ignoring the myriad of other issues listed in this thread, the bit about training AI is pretty misleading. It's not hard to scrape webpages for whatever kind of data you like, even if loops doesn't outright hand things over for third parties for that purpose.
And the kind of people who are downloading the entire internet to train AIs are the type to be willing to just scrape without permission.
Isn't it just a Pixelfed instance but yellow?
Yes, and it will still be brainrot.
My attention span is just fine. I don't need to see it ruined by short format nonsense with about as much intellectual value as the nutritional value of a McDonald's cheeseburger.
I never installed TikTok or Snapchat on my phone, not because I had privacy concerns, but because I hate everything about the format.
How can you hate something that you've never tried?
Vine was before Snapchat
I was there 3000 years ago when snapchat was brand new... those were some good times. Sending snaps to all your friends and staying in touch etc, before all the filters and stories and news etc it was great
I've been avoiding it for years and finally gave in in the moment of weakness. I uninstalled it very soon after because I hated the experience so much and never gave it another thought nor chance. xd
Headline should say coming TO the Fediverse.

It's comin' right for us!

"I'm coming for you!" has a very different meaning
I signed up for Loops the first day. I didn't get an email confirmation until two days after, and I still haven't been given a way to sign in.
Lemmy’s final boss..
Then again, Lemmy and ActivityPub are (by design) wide open to anyone, including TenCent
Anyone actually got an email? I have signed up and haven’t gotten one all week :(
Haven't gotten mine, either. Email said I'd get an invite like that night, but one never came.
I got this email 5 days ago and nothing since
