The Fediverse might be getting their own mashups of Tiktok, YouTube, and Vine sooner than anyone thought, thanks to the work of one prolific dev spearheading an effort. The best part? He’s helping other projects in the space, too.
Dansup is well known for making grand announcements and delivering on them very late or never. I think it was more than two years ago that he announced federated groups for Pixelfed and still nothing. So I wouldn’t get my hopes up yet.
He is a bit bombastic, and has a habit of biting off more than he can chew sometimes. I think these side-projects are ultimately useful, though, and probably help fend off boredom or burnout. Maybe he gets better at coding and design through doing that, I dunno.
Regardless, he’s continues to do a lot of great development work.
Sup messenger too, but it’s on hold due to EU regulatory challenges
And I agree, Dan is a great asset to fediverse development
@deadsuperhero @nutomic I think the concept of a TikTok on the Fediverse is solid. And if short form videos help to get more people on the Fedi, and engaging with the Fedi, that’s a good thing in my book.
i still disagree that we should get as many people as possible on the Fediverse.
That’s a good way for this place to become a hateful shit hole like so many other places on the internet.
Aren’t we still pretty far from being anywhere near that big?
I think the volume of people ia what killed Mastodon. That place is toxic.
How so? I’m not on it but couldn’t you try another instance?
Switch servers, I have had nothing but good interactions
