We're building an ethical alternative to commercial short-video sharing platforms.
As an open-source project, we believe in radical transparency and true community governance.
Share this, and help spread awareness ❤️

John Oliver mentioning Bluesky, Pixelfed, Mastodon and Signal
A year ago, our project was mentioned on @lastweektonight.com ✨
I look forward to exploring ATProto support to connect Loops to more parts of the social web.
The future is open, accessible and ethical. 🚀

A grid graphic displaying six "next generation" ethical alternatives to major social media platforms. Each panel shows a mainstream logo pointing to its alternative with a corresponding website URL: X (Twitter) leads to Mastodon (joinmastodon.org). Instagram leads to Pixelfed (pixelfed.org). WhatsApp leads to Signal (signal.org). Facebook leads to Friendica (friendi.ca). YouTube leads to PeerTube (joinpeertube.org). TikTok leads to Loops (joinloops.org).
The Great Migration 🚀
X ➡️ joinmastodon.org
IG ➡️ pixelfed.org
FB ➡️ friendi.ca
TikTok ➡️ joinloops.org
YouTube ➡️ joinpeertube.org
WhatsApp ➡️ signal.org
Ethical. Federated. Open.
Spread the word ✨️
1 year. 2 apps.
An ecosystem of ethical alternatives. 🌱
Instagram -> Pixelfed: apps.apple.com/us/app/pixel...
Tiktok -> Loops: apps.apple.com/us/app/loops...
Open Source. Federated. Free.
The ad-free, algorithm-free, data collection-free TikTok alternative, Loops, is now available in the App Store.

Thank you for the mention ❤️
Here's one for anyone looking for a not evil alternative to #TikTok.
@dansup.bsky.social, the developer behind the BlueSky-compatible photo sharing app @pixelfedapp.bsky.social, has created a new app called Loops.video
It's ad free, community owned, and not under Trump-mandated ownership.
Loops by Pixelfed now in App Store Review
Our iOS app has been submitted to the App Store for review! 🥳
Every TikTok "alternative" is just another VC-funded data harvesting machine cosplaying as your friend.
Why is joinloops.org the only real open source option?
Because surveillance capitalism pays better than freedom.
If it's not open source, you're not the user, you're the product being sold.
madeincanada.social now features a revamped Operated in Canada section (with banners), and a new Social Infrastructure section with @gandersocial.bsky.social and @transrights.northsky.social, thanks to @thisismissem.social suggestion.
Let's go Canada 🇨🇦 🚀

Yellow image with the Loops logo in the center with text that says: FYP launched 21 days ago 371 hours of content watched (just on loops.video)
Since we launched the For You algorithm 21 days ago, you've spent 371 hours or 15 days watching content.
This is actual watch time, not (video durations * views)
Let this prove that ethical algorithms are not only needed, they win. People want feeds that respect them.
