There are 3 important components to Loops:
1) Capture & Composing
2) Transcoding & Fan-out
3) Loops UI/Pages
I'm almost done 2 & 3 and hope to ship Loops in beta very soon!

@geotechland Pixelfed already supports looped videos, the only reason it's not enabled is because there are ffmpeg bugs in the thumbnail logic. Instagram added looping videos in 2013 as a response to Vine. MicroUI belongs to pleroma now, where they support a lot more than Pixelfed including text-only posts. @dansup gotcha. Will loops discover be the only media available to non-registered users? Or are the current discover pages for regular images available to the public already? @geotechland Yes, Loops will be the only discover page accessible to guests. The public timeline will be be accessible to guests in the near future! |
@dansup i like this but almost seems like its own social media. Might as well bring back MicroUI and make pixelfed social media for everything 😊
