right so theyve said for _ 8_+ months now.
im sick of seeing it included in fediverse projects when it still doesnt actually do any federating and everyone keeps sayin, ‘just wait, theyre working on it!’.
bullshit. ill believe it when i see it, and it shouldnt be included in any fediverse topics until it does so… not because ‘it might’
Ofc the reason for this is that TikTok is so popular and was very nearly banned from the USA (and still might be unless they hand >=50% of their stock shares over to the leader of the USA), so having even the hope of a promise of a prayer of a thought of a dream of a “federated” alternative is of great interest to many people.
Even if the dream hasn’t been realized yet.
im happy there is a tiktok replacement.
i dont think non-federating tiktok clone belongs in federating publications any more than tiktok does.
This seems different than the situation with Bluesky though, where there is no hope of it ever becoming open source. I concede that eventually if the code to Loops is never released you’ll end up being right, it’s just that it still seems early enough in its development that people haven’t given up all hope for that yet.
i agree on bluesky. its just another walled garden with a few extra features.
as for loops… id say its too early in its development, then, to be included in infographics depicting federating platforms. its lying to new users about what its capable now. if/when he ever gets federation implemented, then we can update literature.
im very confused why everyone wants to market a product that cant yet do the core thing we are all here for. there is zero reason to include it right now.
