@vidzy@fosstodon.org Vidzy is still very new, so there's no clear link if you want to try the mobile app. To get the app go to:
github.com/vidzy-social/vidzy_
then click "VidzyMobile.apk " to begin installing.

Otherwise, you can use it in your browser by going to:
vidzy.codeberg.page/
click join a server, join the recommended server (only two currently) then follow instructions.

As of 03/05/25, I have been unable to upload on mobile and browser, but I could comment on browser, like on both, and both were comparable to tiktok in smoothness. Very occassional lagging, but TikTok lagged sometimes too so color me impressed.

You can find their mastodons here: @vidzy@fosstodon.org @vidzy@mstdn.social

I made an account and began using the ACTUALLY open source (glaring at you loops) #TikTok alternative, #vidzy I know they are in an alpha state having just started, but I feel in my heart @vidzy is gonna be really awesome and I'm excited to say I was so early I watched every video on vidzy at some point. Vidzy is #foss , plans to use #activitypub , and all the good things and has both an online interface and app.
There are 48 TikTok alternatives on alternative.to. When you filter for open source, there are 4. Of the four, one is abandoned, one isn't actually open source (Loops), and one is overrun by AI bots pushing crypto (Olas). #Olas is further into development so it works smoother but it has a good amount of spam and is still a bit buggy. I hope it gets better but it's pretty tech-bro scam-y.
#Loops creator dan is problematic for a variety of reason including the fact that he continues to not share current code for Loops, is very immature/rude, and he 'joked' about adding ads.

Wusstet ihr eigentlich, dass es bereits eine Alternative für TikTok gibt und ich meine damit jetzt nicht L-o-o-p-s? 😅

Nennt sich Vidzy, ist wohl auch föderiert/hat ActivityPub Support und ist Open Source.

@danii333 Keep an eye on

https://fosstodon.org/@vidzy (example https://mykmyk.lt/)

and

https://fosstodon.org/@loops@pixelfed.social (example: https://loops.video/v/5-ghm7d2lu).

Both are the open-source Fediverse alternative of #tiktok. However, they are under heavy development and not yet federated. Currently, it is a bit tricky to join either of them. Hold your breath. Meanwhile, please also take a look at

#pixelfed (example: https://pixelfed.social/web/explore).

People say, it is like In$tagram.

If you like a video with "", you probably like , and that creator.

If you're Canadian, you probably like poutine. I'm Canadian, and I definitely do, lol!

If you watch a funny video three times, you probably like funny videos.

If a video is getting 2000 comments, and you like cat videos, you're probably going to like that video!

This will form your
Vidzy For You Page

Full (open-source!) algorithm coming soon! Thanks everyone for all your amazing support!
