Rollover says I just want to scroll videos. I would suggest loops but im have not used it and am not sure if it ever got to the point where it is federated.

Loops from Pixelfed.
Literally a TikTok Clone

so is loops federated now?
-
I really want to try Loops but I've never been able to successfully create an account.
Enter the username, email, password, validate your humanity, and then get a message to check my email for new instructions. The email never comes so I'm stuck. Can't log in, can't use the "forgot my password" function.

Lemmy is plenty mindless, thank you.
-
Not following it closely but afaik on way to it, but not there yet.
Also doesn't seem like there is an app for it?
-
If you can't find shallow, mindless media on Bluesky then you're not looking.
Also, just go on Rednote, ffs. I peaked in there and half the front page is just "Welcome Refugees! Learn hHow to monetize like you did on TikTok" which is soul-suckingly depressing and reminds me why I didn't fuck with Instagram or TikTok to begin with.

I have a Loops account; both of the videos there are pretty meh.
Seriously though, there is a giant lack of content there, I've gotten the feed to loop (heh) after about 30 minutes. Great, because it stops the doom scrolling, but doom scrolling is the entire purpose of the app...

If I'm a regular browser then it's definitely dumbed down enough

Probably the most mindless!

Yeah I kind of expect that. I had messed around with Lemmy before, but I fully moved here when the RedditAPI drama happened and ended 3rd party apps. Lemmy has improved over time, but it's still nowhere near the amount of content Reddit used to provide.
Same thing with Pixelfed vs Instagram/TikTok.
The only solution is to keep using it. Maybe try my own hand at making content on occasion.

Weβre not really social media though.

Don't forget reactionary!

There is, it's currently email invite only. When you sign up they'll email you a link to the APK.

I was in the same situation, but eventually (like 3 days later?) the email did come. Idk if they're manually processing it or what but it can be damn slow it seems.

I can't believe you had the nerve to say that!
