        it’s very early days for loops and as far as i’ve seen there’s no option to host your own instance (though they say it will be open source, it is not right now). https://loops.video/help-center/frequently-asked-questions

          It’s also a gray area because loops doesn’t federate yet, but it probably will someday

      It’s intentional afaik, this move is primarily motivated by spite. “Oh, you’re banning the Singaporean app for being hostile state media? Ok we’ll go to actual hostile state media then”

            Americans criticize their government on all social media platforms constantly, I’ve never seen any level of censorship over such posts beyond stopping actual threats of violence.

            I don’t know what kind of bullshit you’re peddling, but you’re just lying at this point.

                Repeat any of the terms I mentioned that will get you banned and monitored, or worse, in china.

                Please I just want you to type them out so you can prove me absolutely wrong.

                Just say her name.

          The average person probably doesn’t give a shit about their own data and since they are just moving from one Chinese app to another then their data was already acquired so why would they care now?

            It’s not about the data, it’s about the control over what you see.

              Oh yeah because theres totally not propaganda on any major US social media sites. You really think X or Meta’s algorithms are any better? Id argue theyre probably worse actually, so I get why a lot of people would be more comfortable with a chinese app.

          I mean… have you to tried to post primary info stuff on Facebook or Reddit?

          I got banned from r/worldnews back in the day for posting a Reuters article about Israel. Then a few years later, they removed the mod of r/dankvideos and deleted 2 years worth of sub history, without telling anybody or announcing anything.

          The last thing I saw someone complain about a ban on TikTok was because he made a funny video showing his ability to vomit on command.

          No one from TikTok is going to flock to YouTube shorts or Insta reels because it’s an immediate downgrade. They just want a painless experience no matter who provides it.

            Idk man, I’ve had to switch instances once or twice, but i stick around each time mostly because I don’t have to constantly spin up alts to evade bans and continue spreading paid propaganda. And don’t immediately start dumping very suspicious comments immediately after making an account.
