Is Loops ready for wide scale adoption and federation yet? We kinda need a replacement for tiktok, otherwise the addicts will jump to yet another Chinese platform.

Doesn't look like it to me. I tried to sign up yesterday and haven't received the validation email.

Edit: and the UI was very barren and minimal on the video I watched.

There's a ton of domestic TikTok clones already, like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.

otherwise the addicts will jump to yet another Chinese platform.

They already have.

Nowhere near imo. Download the app and see for yourself. It needs WORK.
