In the last few months i really gotten into the whole Fediverse thing, but i noticed that, despite it being the most popular Social Media Platform, there isn’t a TikTok alternative. I know there is Loops, but it’s not open source or federated yet, so it’s not really an option. Why is that?
I really doubt that average TikTok (or instagram, or youtube) aims at monetizing video. It’s a way to share photo and video more than a way to make money. but I may be wrong.
