    I still feel like they seem to be building a bit too much hype to what’s going to be just another type of social media in the fediverse with scarce posts made by almost exclusively tech enthusiasts

    Hot take: let this brain rot format die already. If you cannot hold your attention for longer than a few minutes at a time, you might want to work on that instead of embracing it.

      Current research suggests that declining attention is most likely caused by an expectation of quality rather than actual personal issues. Condensing information is a valuable skill an people do not have time for middle length content just to be disappointed.

      Do you not think some people doomscroll lemmy, only reading titles and looking at image posts?

        Maybe but it’s not the point of it. An infinite scrollable shorts/tiktok like is meant to be doomscrolled

          I believe one of their terms tho is something sketch about your content and data.

            Wanna source that? Cause I’ve been following loops a bit and haven’t seen anything close to that. If anything it’s the opposite.

              They said they believe.

              Only knowledge has sources; but beliefs sound cool.

              I don’t know why I used a semicolon there, but it’s staying.

                Hey, believe in yourself, that semicolon belongs there if you believe it belongs there.

            Ohh no not off to a good start. Pixelfed are pretty good iirc u can add a licence to ur content same as peertube. Lemmy devs rejected the ideas cos they are communists are dont like the idea of ownership.

    What content would people like to see on this platform? I would think the fediverse audience would be a bit different from your average tiktok or instagram reels user

      I am not average then. I use tiktok to discover musicians, get short informative videos from science enthusiasts, and poetry or life advice.

      Some of these are only possible because of the remarkable recommendation algorithm but I stay hopeful.
