Pretty much everything I’ve seen so far has been uncredited reposts from YouTube/Vine/TikTok. Is there anyone consistently uploading original content yet?

The web interface doesn’t let you click on anything so I can’t see profiles but I don’t want to download it and set up an account if it’s all cropped versions of stuff I’ve seen before

    Thank you! I would love to see Loops succeed but I’ve been worried it’s just another “bucket” for people to dump reposts into. Maybe I’ll give it a spin now

      I’ve been posting loops indiscriminately for sure, but part of that is hoping that it will draw Lemmings in that start posting OC, and someday I can add a requirement for not posting reposted tiktoks to this community.

        I get it, gotta have something for strangers to want to join.

        Don’t take my comment as admonishment or anything but if you’re interested in a suggestion, maybe tag the posts from original creators to highlight them? [OC] obviously won’t work…and [Original Loop] might be too verbose…so I guess my suggestion ends there lol

          That’s a good idea, actually. Maybe shorten it to [OL] and explain in the sidebar or something

          EDIT: Added a new rule that reposted content has to be prefixed with [R]. That way, OC for Loops is privileged by not having to have the prefix.
