This is the application of the struggle to become “Bruceto's Tiktok”

Tiktok's potential US ban has triggered a series of development in open social network communities. Some new applications are being constructed, one day, the scattered social network Blue Army and its technology that can be opened for those who like to open the source code, that is, the AT protocol.

Although the TIKTOK ban is currently suspending, President Trump has binded a 75 -day extension to the parent company with negotiation transactions, the government can first knock down Tiktok's fact to make users worry about its future. At the same time, creators and small companies have emphasized how Tiktok's loss affects its income.

Establish “Tiktok for the Blues”

A solution to solve this problem is BLUESky, which is a scattered open source social network. You can choose your own server and algorithm in them and adjust the control control according to your needs. In addition, if you decide to change the server, you can easily move your account without losing the username, friends or posts. You can even “run your own bluesky” by setting your personal data server or relay.

BLUESky is designed for the future network, allowing people to recapture the control of their personal data and social activities from Big Tech Including applications such as Mastodon.

Several new projects are now carrying out the video experience to Bluesky, whether it is a new application built on the same application as a video priority client or as an protocol used by BlueSky.

The following is a video application in each development stage, focusing on catering Bruceky users.

Bruce screen

BlueScreen was built by Berlin developer Sebastian Vogelsang. The latter has previously launched the Bluesky Client App Skeets. BlueScreen is a upcoming application that will focus on publishing to the BlueSky Social Network. Similar to his Instagram replacement flash, this is also in work. Because Vogelsang can reuse some of the same code from Skeets, BlueScreen is quickly constructing.

Like Flashes, BlueScreen will provide a video -priority Blusky experience because it will filter your current Bluesky Feed and video content list, and also allow upload. Because it is based on the blue tone network, your videos will also appear in your personal data in your Bluesky's official application. People's comments and other participation with these videos will be displayed in the BlueScreen application.

He said that Vogelsang established his first Bluesky's prototype in less than two hours, and since then, he has published a voyeur on the application on Bluesky on the BlueScreen account because it has been further improved.

This application has a set of interactive buttons similar to Tiktok, including like, comments, saving/bookmarks, etc.

Remo

Reelo represents greater efforts to build a TIKTOK application. The application attracts Bluesky users, but unlike other efforts, it is not only a layer or filter above the existing social network of Bluesky. Instead, Reelo is developing its own independent application on the AT protocol. This means that Reelo will benefit from the same transparency and control as the data on Bluesky, but it will not be directly established by the Blue Army directly on Bluesky.

This allows Reelo to support more functions, including more than three minutes of longer videos, special effects, music and sound libraries, and later live broadcast. Users will be able to publish their video content directly on the application. As the company explained in an article on Bluesky, compared with other applications (such as competitors' skylights) established by Bluesky, this makes it “richer and more tailor -made video experience”.

However, building its own application in the agreement, rather than creating a layer of applications on the Bluesky itself means a longer development timetable. Reelo is expected to complete the front and back -end of the front end and back end at the end of February. After the initial test period, it will be released on March 20.

Like most applications in development, Reelo looks much like TIKTOK, with vertical video contributions and how to comment and share on the right side of the screen.

Sunroof

Mark Cuban said he is interested in supporting potential startups in this field, and the team behind Skylows has been working hard to build a TIKTOK alternative.

The team behind this application includes Victoria (“TORI”) White, a co -founder in Seattle, who has a background in building custom websites and applications and responding to developers Reed Harmeyer. The founder uses the sunroof as “AT Agreement TIKTOK” for marketing, which is technically correct because Bluesky itself runs on the agreement.

However, by building the sunroof as the top layer of the existing Bluesky platform, the application has encountered restrictions.

The Blue Army's social network limits the video to 60 seconds in length and 50MB. In other words, if Skylight wants to add support for longer videos or other features, you need to wait for BlueSky to change your guidelines or develop your own special application, based on protocols. (The founder of the sunroof rejected the interview, so it is unclear what their long -term roadmap looks like.)

The sunroof does have various advantages because its video -centric applications have performed BETA tests on iOS and Android, so that early users can try it before public release.

Application functions include Like, Follow, Comment and Personal Information Pages. Video upload is still in progress.

Video of Bruceki

The Bluesky naming video launched on the App Store is another application established on the Bluesky itself. This new application is provided by the “MSZPRO” (MSZPRO) (MSZPRO) (also known as Hoshida Takiyoshi) by independent Japanese developers.

Takiyoshi has always liked experiments. So far, about 60 applications have been built, including SorasNS applications, which can jointly access decentralized network Mastodon, Bluesky, MISSKEY and Firefish.

Like other, Bluesky's video can browse familiar with the TIKTOK user interface by vertically, the repost and reply buttons, so that you can browse the video of the blue -adjusting social network.

The application also has user configuration files, built -in search, follow button, and its own local “For You” timetable, which includes trend videos and how to view the people you follow or any other videos of any customized supply. Developers say that the algorithm designed by the application will learn your interest over time.

Its latest update adds support for other functions (such as notifications and new post composers), which focus on video upload.

With the one -time “Pro” unlocking the application, users can access the posts to analyze the information and watch the video of the custom timetable.

Soon, it will add NSFW filtering, video recorder, style filter, download, bookmarks, etc.

The video of the BLUESky application is only iOS, but if there is enough user needs, developers will consider building an Android version.

Hoshida pointed out: “BlueSky is still a relatively new platform, but its independent developers like me can easily integrate new functions like me.” Application manufacturer's registered development personnel account can help more people start construction immediately.

Later, developers planned to develop other social applications, including a news reader of Bruceki and Fediverse focusing on photos.

Surfing

Although Flipboard's latest application SURF is not just a video polymer, this application has recently added its own video supply after adding custom video feed to Bluesky.

Initially, Surf focused on the video posts that were focused on the blues trend video and other contents including the #Skytok label, “but its purpose is to personalize Feed to the end user as soon as possible in future development. Open and make each user more interesting.

Bluesky's video contribution can be obtained in the Surf application. People can also build their own custom contributions to track various posts of the entire open social network, including Bluesky, Mastodon, RSS, etc.

Surf is still in a private Beta test, but interested people can use the registration list.

Blu -ranging

Bluesky Reels (its website has not been broadcast live) is another project, which can see that changing Tiktok on the market. Customers developed by Craig Merry will only support video and basic user interaction. Over time, it can also include support for other personal data servers of Blue Army.

The content of this application comes from Bluesky itself, although the goal is to add more features that Bluesky does not have.

Merry explained: “My main goal is to build a simple method for people to create the summary of planning (content that can be directly adjusted), just like the moderate in reddit.”

The application is about to start on the Beta on iOS, Android and Web.
