I just finished the Loops Auth modal that handles:

- Login
- Registration
- Two factor
- Backup 2FA
- Password resets
- Post-Signup Onboarding

Only thing left is to finish the install guide and dockerfile, and we're ready for the alpha release

The Loops Help Center won’t be ready until the beta, but basically it is powered by a separate git repo of markdown files that will support translations and can be imported/synced with your Loops server, providing a rich repository of platform knowledge to help people on every Loops server.

Pages, Studio, Help Center, these are some pretty unique features that will help both the people and admins to build better communities!

Loops will ship with a Data Export feature, allowing you to take your account + content to another server or platform.

We do have Import and Account Migration planned too!

Admins are going to love Loops (and Pages).

Want to add a sidebar link to your discord only visible to logged in users?

Or perhaps a Monthly Leaderboard challenge where you describe the rules and update the leaderboard table?

Last but not least, say you need to add an Impressum or the like in the footer.

You can do all of this from the Admin Dashboard, no command line required

Loops Pages unlock endless possibilities for admins to embrace effortlessly.

The Loops Sound Library feature is really exciting, leveraging other fediverse platforms like FunkWhale to provide audio that you can add to your Loops videos, while also providing federated attribution.

Special thanks to @nlnet for funding this feature

Loops Studio is built for creators, allowing you to upload new content, review and manage your posts, comments and interactions as well as view analytics!

It just one aspect of the platform that will soon launch with federation support and easy self-hosting.

Follow @loops for updates, or join https://loops.video to be one of the first to experience this

Get ready for a new era

What’s going on with #Loops? Is it still a thing?

Loops is built for the people, but we haven't forgot the admins.

We've added some pretty innovative features, like Pages that allow you to add/edit/publish rich pages and optionally add them to the main sidebar nav or footer and limit visibility to guests, users or both.

I appreciate your patience while we prepare Loops for you, and you'll soon see, it was worth the wait

I just added a really cool feature to Loops that will blow admins socks off.

Want to see a demo?

Habe mich gerade bei #Loops (@loops) registriert - und bin sehr gespannt wie das läuft... :)

Stehe wohl erstmal auf einer Warteliste und erfahr in den nächsten 2 Tagen mehr.

Wenn alles klappt, teile ich dann bald meine YT-Shorts mit euch! :)

Für einen PeerTube Server konnte ich mich leider immernoch nicht entscheiden... Aber ich bleibe dran und plane mit @torstentorsten auch noch mehr Kolegg*innen ins Fediverse zu locken...

I spent the past few hours making the Loops webUI more responsive, it's gorgeous

You won't need an app to use Loops

And you will soon be able to run your own Loops server, spread the word!

Hey Fedieltern, wenn man einem Teenager erlaubt, einen Fediverse Account zu erstellen -also Social Media Erstkontakt- was nimmt man da? Pixelfed? Friendica? Loops? Gibt's da Erfahrungen? Empfehlungen? Evtl. Instanz-Empfehlungen?

The Loops alpha release is nearly ready, just take a look at this demo.
