Feature Suggestion: Video Updates on Social Media Platforms
Consider creating and sharing video updates about the development progress of Loops and Pixelfed on popular social media platforms like YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, etc.
Rationale:
- Increased visibility: Platforms like YouTube and TikTok have MASSIVE user bases, providing an opportunity to reach potential new users who may not be familiar with Loops or Pixelfed.
- Engaging content format: Video content is highly engaging and can effectively showcase new features, UI improvements, and behind-the-scenes development processes.
- Building community: Regular updates can help foster a sense of community and excitement among existing users, keeping them informed and involved in the project's progress.
- Inspiration from others: Some developers are already using this approach successfully. For example:
- Skylight Social (ATProtocol-based app): https://www.tiktok.com/@buildwithtori
- Neptune (potential TikTok alternative): https://www.tiktok.com/@theneptuneapp
These creators are effectively using TikTok to document their development journey and build interest in their projects.
By adopting a similar strategy, Loops and Pixelfed could:
- Provide regular progress updates to the community
- Showcase new features and improvements
- Offer sneak peeks of upcoming developments
- Share insights into the development process
- Engage with users through comments and feedback
I personally believe that this approach could SIGNIFICANTLY boost awareness of Loops and Pixelfed while keeping the existing community engaged and excited about the project's future.
