Short-form video might in fact be the next frontier for federated media. The dev behind a popular photo-sharing platform is diving in headfirst.

The Fediverse might be getting their own mashups of Tiktok, YouTube, and Vine sooner than anyone thought, thanks to the work of one prolific dev spearheading an effort. The best part? He’s helping other projects in the space, too.

    Well this is Interesting.

    Video storage and bandwidth is probably my most pressing concern, but that’s the same as with peertube, no?

    Speaking of which, are they going to consult with PeerTube for cross compatibility?

      Evidently, [loops and goldfish] are intended to be compatible with one another, as well as other video platforms in the Fediverse, such as PeerTube or Vidzy.

      From the article. So yes, they should be cross compatible at some point.
