Given that Pixelfed is designed as an Instagram alternative, it seems like it’d make more sense to just put the short-form videos on there.

    Didn’t Instagram add those stupid things because it was desperately trying to compete with TikTok?

    I love having a platform that isn’t trying to do short form portrait video. Everywhere wants to do it and I detest the medium. It’s so boring!

        Uhhh, no? I get that I’m apparently alone in that, but I find both the format and the cadence of content it results in horrible.

      I wouldn’t mind one doing true short form, Vine-style, but watching somebody talk into their phone for 2-3 minutes? Hell no.
