Compassion >~ Thought
Ah I see. Fwiw, !loops@midwest.social has this in the sidebar:
If the loop you’re posting isn’t original content uploaded by the creator, prefix the title with [R] for “reposted”. For example, [R] Cute dog.
So that’s at least something to help differentiate them.
It’s kinda is yeah.:-) Both Tesseract and PieFed have YouTube embedding, but only Tesseract has that for Loops (so far).
That will come but for now it’s more helpful for the beta testing to have a large diversity of scenarios to work with.
FYI Tesseract as implemented on e.g. dubvee.org, an alternative front-end UI for Lemmy made by Admiral Patrick, has an embedded player already, which doesn’t need an account to play the videos. See it in action at https://tesseract.dubvee.org/c/loops@midwest.social, or read more about Tesseract at https://dubvee.org/post/2453173. I hope to see even greater levels of integration soon, perhaps in PieFed!:-)
It’s somewhat funny how most Lemmy mods seem to discuss things on Discord or Matrix, rather than Lemmy (based on the chatter, though I am not a mod here so what do I know, really?).
Anyway the article itself is awesome news, though odd that accepting the cookie policy took almost a minute, and a bunch of stuff does not render well in my Firefox on Android web browser (switching to Landscape rather than Portrait helped). I also found the table layout to be highly confusing - does every one of those projects use ngi@video.ngi.eu, bc that’s normally what those lack of border lines would mean, or does only NGI Zero Commons Fund use it? Either way the meaning isn’t clear at all, but there are so many problems with that site that it could just be another html rendering mistake.
I always like to promote cool stuff, and your stuff is so freaking cool:-).
Good point about it not working natively inside Beehaw but I just wanted to clarify for anyone reading that even so, they can still click the link https://tesseract.dubvee.org/c/loops@midwest.social and see the loops videos in action - they can’t comment or vote, either on the Lemmy post or for the Loops video, but for read-only mode it works very well.
I don’t have a Loops account myself so haven’t compared the experiences for that vs. Tesseract but regardless it’s kinda neat to be able to do something like sort that community by Top Week or something and then go through the videos one by one, reading comments if desired also.
