There's now a Fediverse alternative to TikTok called Loops. It's currently in beta testing so it is rough round the edges, but you can sign up and try it for yourself. More info at:
You can follow its official account at:
➡️ @loops
There's an iPhone app just released at:
➡️ apps.apple.com/app/loops-by-pi…
Loops now federates with the Fediverse, there are several Loops servers and Loops accounts can be followed from Mastodon etc (e.g. @dansup).
Loops by Pixelfed App - App Store
Download Loops by Pixelfed by Daniel Supernault on the App Store. See screenshots, ratings and reviews, user tips, and more games like Loops by Pixelfed.App Store
Yeah it doesn't look like its open source, you should try the FLOSS loops.video its the most like tiktok on the fediverse and it allows people on mastodon and other fediverse platforms to follow you
Proprietary code means anti user every time, they are just another company looking to monetize your participation, loops is different because its community owned and run

Not sure if the wider #fediverse is aware of what's happening on #TikTok today, but @edwardchampion lays it out well here: youtube.com/shorts/2AI9jkAaLk4

TikTok's transition to U.S. ownership involves collecting even more data about its users, including precise location and AI interactions. It's also likely that the new privacy policy will lead to you seeing more targeted ads. Here's the lowdown from @WIRED.

ENOUGH!
