Also, how long does it take to get confirmation email?
It’s ok. I’m glad it’s a thing that exists and hope it will get better with time but as it is now it’s very bare bones. I don’t remember how long it took to get my email I know I signed up a while back though when I first saw signups available. Even if it’s not that great now I think FOSS alternatives to big apps and software are always a good thing.
I signed up and I am waiting. I gotta say if tiktok actually gets banned in the US, I will have a lot of time on my hands lol.
Yea, it’s growing, but definitely need polish still
Is there an in app video editor? What is the policy on using music in videos for a FOSS platform like this?
Nope no video editor, I’d say probably fairly open for the music
I wonder if Capcut will be banned along with Tiktok.
The rules for using copyrighted content are the same on FOSS platforms as for the big players, legally speaking. The difference is the FOSS platforms simply don’t have the same enforcement mechanisms in place, so they won’t give you warnings directly and automatically. If a rights-holder comes across something that uses their content, however, they can still come after you under the law using things like the DMCA.
Yea, I was aware of the legality. But good to know. I was using AI music in my videos that gives me a license to use them. No one would give a strike regardless. I never monetized anyway. Just didn’t want to have silent videos.
TikTok without the government spyware.
There’s a lemmy community posting weblinks as well so you don’t need the app.
It’s fine, I wish there was more original content, but it’s fine.
I am. Seems nice and cool but not many people are there yet, plus the app has a lot of way to go. But I believe it can accomplish something interesting
It’s an interesting start. But still has a very long way to go feature wise. I’m also unsure of how updates are supposed to work as it gets worked on.
