"But if you have a shitty attitude stay where you are"

For things that you're using by yourself, sure, it's doable. However, for content creation, it's pretty hard. Some of those alternatives just don't have the critical mass yet. Maybe it would be an option to do both in parallel for some time before switching completely, but might not work for everybody.

Practical example: I'm a hobbyist photographer. Small timer, less than 1000 followers. My livelihood doesn't depend on this, but I'm still serious about it. I mainly do concerts and sport events (so a lot of things involving other people) and my main outlets are Facebook and Instagram. Switching to something else would mean either 1) that no one will see my work or 2) that people will see my photos on the alternative place, they'll copy them over and they'll still end up on Facebook and Instagram, but this time without my creative control (thus badly cropped and recompressed several times - so even if I pay special attention to those things when publishing by myself, the effort goes down the drain when someone else does it).

Done. I thought it was going to be difficult leaving YouTube but then they blocked new pipe which was my YT crutch. I don't know what they were thinking I was going to do but it was not re installing their app.

So where lemmy fits?

Really wish Loops had an Android app.

Can we self host loops yet? I've been holding out on that one. Not that I use tiktok but I would use loops and could probably get my wife to jump.

Wtf is piefed? I mean, I'm searching for it now, I've just never heard of it.

Do you really want the world to join here? I don't think you do. A lot of the world is anti trans, anti woke or whatever they want to call it. I'm pretty open minded but the Marxist purists who continuously shout down differing opinions get really old sometimes.

Tiktok -> tiktok with less content and login required unless you like the 10 videos we have chosen for you.
