    @cairobraga Eventually, yes, but for now we are focused on our open source mobile app!

    Loops will launch with a chronological only feed, then a Followers feed and finally the For You feed.

    Before we can serve personalized feeds, we need to build and label the video and topic graphs. We will be A/B testing the For You page during the next few weeks. You will be able to tell because there will a new For You header menu!

    ✨ Improved Loops Share menu

    Now with a new "Not Interested" button to help train the For You feed along with Bookmark and Report features!

    @liaizon Bookmarks don't signal anything, only likes and comments (and potentially view time, we should discuss this if you're still interested in helping with Loops!)

    I just realized that, although @pixelfed lets me follow Threads users who have Fediverse sharing enabled (e.g., @reuben, @ryanbates, and @friskygeek), it looks like their photo posts aren't appearing when viewing their profiles in Pixelfed (despite my following them for weeks now). How should I go about reporting this?

    @mntyfrsh @pixelfed @reuben @ryanbates @friskygeek We believe this is due to changes Threads made regarding delivery, and are working on a solution!

    Loop video urls will be super short!

    ex: loops.video/v/5jM_jMRGuYbLc

    Notice no username? That's because we plan to support username changes ✨

    I've seen people mention that the Loops push notifications are dark patterns, and that is not my intention at all

    I'm not encrypting the notifications and they can be collected by various parties (NSA, Apple, Google) so I didn't want to include any more metadata than I needed to

    Hope you understand!

    @thisismissem I will eventually, I don't know if Expo even supports that, because that is what I'm using for now.

    Loops is open source, and as such, I think it's a bit naive to spread rumors about data privacy when I haven't even pushed all the code yet.

    I'm not some start up, I don't give a heck about your data, I just like building cool things for cool people

    That being said, I know I don't always make the right decisions, and look forward to community feedback so we can find the right solutions, together!

    I'm not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom 😎

    "Someone you know (@pixelfed) joined Loops!"

    Just imagine how easy it will be to grow your Loops network graph with innovative features like these!

    We're just getting started 😎

    @dansup@mastodon.social avatar

    @shalien @pixelfed its opt-in, and we use fine grained oauth scopes to ensure we can't read DMs or other data.

    How isn't that privacy compatible?

    You literally have to connect your Mastodon account first, and if someone else does that has your account included, you can access the collection of who you follow from a web browser without any auth.

    ✨ Iconic Onboarding

    With Loops, you will be able to take advantage of your Mastodon (or Pixelfed) account to find friends based on accounts you're already following!

    Discovery is crucial, and we're making it even easier ⚡️

    Loops is an open source short video sharing platform, with ActivityPub support!

    Made by the same people that made Pixelfed 😎

    @amy You will have the option to disable this, it will be enabled by default for obvious reasons, however there will be a grace period of a few hours after you first create your account to disable this so nobody else is notified!

    I hope that answers your question, and if you have any feedback or advice, don't hesitate. I'm trying to get this right, but I'm only one guy and I could use all the feedback I can get 😁

    dansup,
    @dansup@mastodon.social avatar

    @amy I mean, its not really emulating dark patterns since this isn't a "Share Contacts" modal on the main feed, you need to actively navigate to Settings -> Connect Mastodon then Connect your account by logging in.

    If you don't do these steps, you won't be found or recommended friends, since you never connected.

    Would you agree it's not the same as opting to share your Contacts with Facebook? Most Mastodon accounts are public, so are the following collections, I don't think its a dark pattern

    Loops has a simple For You algorithm to show relevant interests and topics, it will get better over time like my Autospam algorithm!

    The way it works is pretty clever, using a combination of on-device machine learning and nlp we use plenty of “signals” to classify content and associate it accordingly.

    This is more than just short videos, helping people discover relevant content is crucial to our mission and I look forward to building the best fediverse For You feed 😎
