Wouldn't it make sense to put "reels" on Pixelfed instead of having a TikTok alternative? (lemmy.zip)

Given that Pixelfed is designed as an Instagram alternative, it seems like it'd make more sense to just put the short-form videos on there.

As I said, the format and the cadence that results from what people optimise for is what turns me off. I don't want portrait video on my phone, at all. I don't want min maxing for short run time.

It could be about my favourite topics and I still wouldn't want to watch it, anymore than I want to watch films on VHS or listen to music on HitClips.
