Back in the '90s we couldn't avoid Adobe, Aldus, Autodesk, and Apple to create #CGI. Today, #IT's different with #LibreSoftware, but all our #AntiPR #impossibleART works are hu-man-made.

Some are available free of charge. Others not so much, but they all share our intention to spread the message of LOVE & PEACE in a graphic language.

I get that people may think that Loops is simply a TikTok clone.

But a clone wouldn't ship 26k LoC to add ActivityPub support*, publish all source code under AGPL, or support full data export and migration.

Most TikTok competitors are driven by financial motives, whereas Loops isn't.

This matters. A lot.

Almost every genocide in history was conducted in the name of self-defense, from Armenia to Nazi Germany to Rwanda and Sudan. There is always an existential threat, an imminent danger we must defend ourselves against. There's always a "legitimate" reason to maim and starve and blockade and bomb. We never target civilians, we do everything we can, yet somehow they die by the thousands.

We ain't special, we're right in the footsteps of all other genocide perpetrators.
