I’m just wondering if there is some sort of alternative to Tiktok on the Fediverse?

I understand that something like Tiktok needs a critical mass of users, but just curious if someone has attempted it?

    No comments on this yet. YouTube has PeerTube but others have discussed the difficulty of paying for hosting for video vs text. With the problem of “who’s paying” not yet figured out it might be too difficult to manage.

      While I understand that some people like video content, the absolute saturation of low quality clips, culminating in TikTok sludge has been detriminal to the quality of online discourse. Not everything needs to be TV 2.0, and I would like for the Fediverse to avoid the dreaded “pivot to video” for as long as possible.
