are there any actual content creators on Loops yet?
Pretty much everything I've seen so far has been uncredited reposts from YouTube/Vine/TikTok. Is there anyone consistently uploading original content yet?
The web interface doesn't let you click on anything so I can't see profiles but I don't want to download it and set up an account if it's all cropped versions of stuff I've seen before
Yeah, there's definitely OC on there. There's a lot of reposts because of how new Loops is, for sure. I've seen #loops and #DogsOfLoops in video descriptions, both of which I assume mean it's not simply reposting content from other platforms, though they might also be posting to multiple platforms.
Here's some loops that seem Loops-specific (just picking out of the most recent I've posted to Lemmy):

Some creators that are consistently uploading original content are:
EDIT: Oh also, @Krafting@lemmy.world created !loops@lemmy.world for discussion of Loops. I don't mind posting questions here, but I figure some people might block this community if they feel it's spammy, so you might not get some people seeing your question.
Thank you! I would love to see Loops succeed but I've been worried it's just another "bucket" for people to dump reposts into. Maybe I'll give it a spin now
