Discussion of and questions about Loops should go over in [email protected]

If the loop you're posting isn't original content uploaded by the creator, prefix the title with ♻️ or [R] (if you don't feel like typing an emoji) for "reposted". For example, ♻️ Cute dog or [R] Cute dog.

Note that some loopers upload their loops to multiple platforms including Loops, so you might see insta/tiktok logos on videos that aren't marked as reposts.

If you know the source for a loop marked ♻️/[R], please comment with it!

Pretty much everything I've seen so far has been uncredited reposts from YouTube/Vine/TikTok. Is there anyone consistently uploading original content yet?

The web interface doesn't let you click on anything so I can't see profiles but I don't want to download it and set up an account if it's all cropped versions of stuff I've seen before

I've been posting loops indiscriminately for sure, but part of that is hoping that it will draw Lemmings in that start posting OC, and someday I can add a requirement for not posting reposted tiktoks to this community.

I get it, gotta have something for strangers to want to join.

Don't take my comment as admonishment or anything but if you're interested in a suggestion, maybe tag the posts from original creators to highlight them? [OC] obviously won't work...and [Original Loop] might be too verbose...so I guess my suggestion ends there lol

That's a good idea, actually. Maybe shorten it to [OL] and explain in the sidebar or something

EDIT: Added a new rule that reposted content has to be prefixed with [R]. That way, OC for Loops is privileged by not having to have the prefix.
