The Fediverse might be getting their own mashups of Tiktok, YouTube, and Vine sooner than anyone thought, thanks to the work of one prolific dev spearheading an effort. The best part? He’s helping other projects in the space, too.

    Available Soon.

    Dansup is well known for making grand announcements and delivering on them very late or never. I think it was more than two years ago that he announced federated groups for Pixelfed and still nothing. So I wouldn’t get my hopes up yet.

      He is a bit bombastic, and has a habit of biting off more than he can chew sometimes. I think these side-projects are ultimately useful, though, and probably help fend off boredom or burnout. Maybe he gets better at coding and design through doing that, I dunno.

      Regardless, he’s continues to do a lot of great development work.

        He’s still working on his messengers. It’s been delayed because of new EU regulations surrounding messaging clients.
