loops
Apparently #Loops has many new features right now.
If only it had the feature to upload videos from mobile too.
(I know I shouldn't complain, it's a one man project and building new shiny features is more exciting that fixing app breaking bugs)
Loops is working on comment controls (beyond just disabling comments) that will be compatible with Pixelfed and other projects who implement it!
Preparing a new Loops release:
- Curated Onboarding
- Sign in with Apple
- Starter Kits
- Improved Search
- Playlists
- Studio Creator Analytics
ETA: this weekend 🚀
观望了许久，注册了 https://loops.video，由 @dansup 建立的fedi短视频网站。
目前我的账号是 @KipJayChou ，之后大概会自建loops实例。
loops的视频目前限制在三分钟，大概会比peertube更适合分享我的狗视频，只需要经过稍微的剪辑即可。
目前dansup在积极开发Loops

Loops APK Update: fixing the last bugs and finishing the final screen so I can ship the APK before I go to bed.
The long-awaited APK release is almost here.
Our community has grown so much this year — this one’s for the early adopters, the trendsetters, the pioneers.
We’re making history together. I couldn’t be prouder.

Then refresh the page, I'm working on another update to gracefully poll so you don't need to refresh after following a remote account.
Stay tuned 😎

We're moving fast 🚀
All of this was shipped since v1.0.0-beta.4 which was only released 5 days ago!
https://github.com/joinloops/loops-server/releases/tag/v1.0.0-beta.4
I've been experimenting with AR filters for the Loops camera, it's so cool, I can write filters like you see in SnapChat, Instagram, TikTok.
Cat ears, or a puppy face, thanks to the power of react-native and worklets, we can build features like this that you only see on the biggest social platforms.
I'm working on an AP extension so we can use and share community created filters using a well defined spec powered by existing industry standards.

Awesome!
Loops may be available for and usable on the FLX1s Linux phone soon.
(The FLX1s is a non-Android (Linux) phone that can run some Android apps.)

FediSuite - Your Fediverse Management Platform
Version 1.6.2 released!
Changes
The list of posts written in FediSuite is now split and switchable via button tabs between: Scheduled Posts, Published Posts, and Failed Posts. Each of these lists can be filtered.
Collapsing the sidebar previously hid the submenu under "Admin Area." This has been fixed.
Version 1.6.1 already brought a complete redesign of FediSuite.
If you like FediSuite and think this project deserves a bit of support, feel free to show it with toots and boosts across the Fediverse! Of course, there's also the option of financial support. Just use the yellow buttons in the FediSuite app or on the FediSuite website! Thank you very much!

Made by the people for the people.
Oh, and also made for cats, dogs, capybaras and other puppies.

Isn't the Loops webUI beautiful?
I spent so much time learning tailwind and vue 3 to build this from scratch after I got home from FediCon last August.
From the mobile first layout, to the webcodec powered transcoder, it's a very feature packed experience that aims to be feature complete with our mobile app.
Loops now supports FEP-3b86: Activity Intents ✨
