TikTok policy rumors suggest political creators might need a new home soon. 👀

Loops has been building exactly what they need.

Sometimes timing is everything.

@dansup Are they going to disallow political speech on their platform?

@ramsey Yeah basically, I heard this

"Allegedly, TikTok community guidelines update on Sunday will basically purge the platform of politically active users."

I don't understand how Loops will pay for the bandwidth required for a popular short video site.

If we want to make it work, they need our support, and I am not sure if that will be enough.

@paulschoe @dansup I was wondering about this as well. I'd love for Loops to become a real TT alternative, but wouldn't that be very expensive?

@Gina
If people host their own instances, it will definitely mitigate the problem.
Running a server is fairly cheap.

@dansup you would need a big plan for moderation in that case
