Instagram suspended our account, one we've never posted from, just added a link to https://pixelfed.org in the bio.

If you want a free open alternative to Microsoft Github, you might want to have a look at @forgejo which lets you host your own code forge:

🌱 https://forgejo.org

If you just want to sign up on a Forgejo instance without self-hosting it, check out @Codeberg at:

Forgejo is free open source software, a community-run hard fork of Gitea. The Forgejo devs are also working on adding Fediverse support to Forgejo instances.

My name is Jake and I’m here to eat treats and model for Mastodon, Pixelfed and Loops.

And I’m all out of treats. Wait I think I spotted one, you šŸ˜

We can build better, and they will come.

Trust me.

Loops feels ripe for another viral moment.

It's been a long road. No VC. No selling out. No compromising on the mission. Just a stubborn belief that short video could be built differently — and a community that showed up to prove it.

#Loops

Join the beta.

Join thousands of early adopters testing the future of federated short-video. It only takes a few minutes to get started.

A sitting MP just named Loops on stage.

@AwetTesfaiesus — who joined the community three months ago — gave us a shoutout in front of a live audience. Photo via @mellifluousbox.

#Loops #TheFutureIsFederated

https://Ask.com, originally launched as Ask Jeeves in 1996, has been permanently closed by IAC as of May 1, 2026, to refocus business priorities. The site, which transitioned from a search engine to a Q&A platform, was online for nearly 30 years.

TikTok, Reels, and Shorts aren't entertainment platforms. They're data extraction machines with a video player bolted on.

Loops is different: open source, federated, accountable to creators instead of advertisers.

#Loops

Loops - Our Mission.

Reclaiming short-video sharing for humanity. Loops was founded on a simple but powerful idea: social media should serve people, not exploit them.
