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 https://loops.video/

Edit: Sorry I didn't read your text under the Comic. Then nvm if you were already aware of Loops. Haha :D

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.

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’m in the Discord for Loops, but not affiliated with it. The dev said they’re rate-limited by their email provider, so it does take a long time to go through the queue. The queue is also split between Pixelfed and Loops, since they have the same developer, so that slows things down even more.

It took about three days to get my invite as well, but it may be a bit faster now since I think the initial surge of signups has tapered off a bit.
