Thanks to @[email protected] for the icon and banner!

Discussion of and questions about Loops should go over in [email protected]

If the loop you're posting isn't original content uploaded by the creator, prefix the title with ♻️ or [R] (if you don't feel like typing an emoji) for "reposted". For example, ♻️ Cute dog or [R] Cute dog.

Note that some loopers upload their loops to multiple platforms including Loops, so you might see insta/tiktok logos on videos that aren't marked as reposts.

If you know the source for a loop marked ♻️/[R], please comment with it!

Rules:

  1. Don't be a dick
  2. Don't make me add more rules

If you've been annoyed at loops in this community not getting embedded, try out Tesseract (https://tesseract.dubvee.org/). It's an awesome Lemmy UI made by @[email protected] that supports embedding loops (along with many other neat features), and embeds them as regular video files, give you browser-native controls like seeking and volume control.

More information can be found in the release announcement:

Note that it's still considered beta, so is only available yet at the hosted instance https://tesseract.dubvee.org/. Testing and bug-hunting is appreciated:

Again, testing and submitting buts is extremely helpful as I cannot test every possible scenario.

Thanks for the shout out. Definitely still a beta feature, but it seems to be working very well. Hopefully Loops doesn't do something user-hostile and block non-browser traffic with Cloudflare or something because that would break this integration. At least I'm being considerate and caching the lookup responses lol.

Any testing/bug reporting is appreciated, but one area where it would be extra appreciated is on iOS. I no longer have an iPhone to test with, so that's been a testing blind spot for several months now.
