Social media needs testing like any other software. If you join Loops now, you're basically a beta tester.
Testing social media without users makes little sense.
There's also an argument to be made that when it is finally released properly, it's good to have some content there already.
I am a little concerned about the future of Loops and Pixelfed though. Developing things can be fun, maintaining them is a different story.
