In the last few months i really gotten into the whole Fediverse thing, but i noticed that, despite it being the most popular Social Media Platform, there isn't a TikTok alternative. I know there is Loops, but it's not open source or federated yet, so it's not really an option. Why is that?

YouTube is a social network?

No. But it is a social media site, and people have been conflating the two for twenty years now.

I'm often surprised by how active and "engaged" the comment section can get, especially on live videos.

I am often surprised how toxic yt comments are.

Perhaps I spend too much time reading them, but I'm more surprised when the comment section is NOT toxic!
