Loops is a federated alternative to TikTok created by Pixelfed. Once it first came out, users were able to sign up for early access. Confirmation emails weren’t sent right away, but today they announced that emails were being sent out, and registration is now closed.
I got a confirmation email today, attached in the image. I will be loosely documenting my experience, and may (no promises) make a writeup about it.
Go read their ToS/Privacy Pokicy. This should be a PSA not to use it.

Check the replies too.
From the constant launch delays to this ToS, this is how not to launch a new Fediverse project 101 lol
Fork
Fuck’s sake
thanks for bringing that up
Got an invite, too. But without an app there is nothing you can do, just change password and write a bio.
Why is this on privacy community?
Because it’s a privacy-respecting alternative I guess. Though posting it on open-source would still be better.
Because people are going to post their privates on there
Yep, dozens of people use Fediverse. I’m sure this’ll be very popular.
Let’s not build anything because there are no users. There are no users if we don’t build anything.
Uh oh you angered 16 of the the 20 of us
Posted in the Fediverse 😂
As I look at this thing from the inside of the fedibubble, it looks like it’s going to be the best thing ever.
I hope it works out, this is sorely needed.
Yeah… Attention span 5s, welcome to privacy.
