      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”

            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.

                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.

        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

        Yep made by same guy as pixelfed, the federated instagram alternative https://pixelfed.org/ https://pixelfed.org/mobile-apps

        Loops has iPhone app in beta on TestFlight and supposedly one on GitHub for Android

        There’s a Lemmy app called photon Or something that’s integrating loops

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