If the US government wanted to actually take the high road on this instead of hoping to be able to keep public discourse under the thumb of their own oligarchs, they would push in this direction instead imo
Any government actually.
By funding foss projects and living the example.
It’s not like it’s not happening, but it’s alloys at such a smol scale.
And not really on social media part (a few govs use Mastodon iirc, but that is about it that I can think of).
Yeah, anything but foss apparently.
Sorry for off topic.

Is it good for bullshitting for 10 minutes at a time?

No app is the big killer.
I’m using the app right now. It’s in beta.
Really? Is it for android?
yes, it’s for android and there is an “iOS Testflight” whatever that means: https://loops.video/
IIRC there is an app, but it’s only on iPhone.
No, I have it on Android https://loops.video/
