MenuAre There Any New Short-Video Platforms Worth Trying?
With TikTok setting the standard for short-form videos, I’ve been wondering are there any new platforms that offer something different? Some creators say they want better reach, less algorithm interference, or even new ways to monetize their content.
Have any of you tried newer alternatives? If so, what features made you stick around?
Answers
Yes, there are several new short-video platforms emerging that cater to creators looking for better reach, less algorithm interference, or new monetization options. A few worth exploring are:
Clapper: A creator-driven platform focusing on community engagement, with less algorithmic influence and more organic reach.
Triller: A music-centric platform where creators can make stylized videos, and it offers monetization opportunities through live streaming.
Zigazoo: A positive, kid-friendly platform that’s expanding into general short-form content, promoting safe and creative interactions.
Byte (now part of Clash): Built by a Vine co-founder, it emphasizes short, looping videos with a focus on creator payments.
Lomotif: A growing platform that’s popular for its music and collaborative video features, giving creators room to experiment.
Features that tend to keep creators hooked include better revenue sharing models, direct audience interaction, and algorithm transparency. If monetization is a key goal, platforms with tipping, subscriptions, or brand partnership tools can be game-changers!
Would you like me to dive deeper into any of these or help you figure out which one aligns best with your goals? Let me know!

How do I know if a developer is good?
You've received good advice. I'd just add one thing. We recently interviewed dozens of developers. After narrowing it down to a handful of individuals that had personalities and resumes we liked, we paid a developer friend of ours a few hundred bucks to interview the developers and thoroughly vet them from a technical standpoint. It was well worth the money to have someone more technically skilled than us contribute to our due diligence on the candidates.Jared IversonJI

What tools to send push notifications and in-app messages do you use? Which engagement type works better?
I think push vs in-app are two different things, like email and telephone call. Push reaches people who are not using your app, but require OS-level permission. In-app gives you much more flexibility but they only reach people who are using your app (obviously!). As to whether in-house or external SDK is best, it depends what you are trying to do and whether an external system handles it. For a typical retail environment the SDKs might be easiest--it's a well-established use-case. For something needing a more customized algorithm, an in-house system might work as well as an external SDK (for less money). There are simple options to save you from starting completely from scratch, from PHP toolkits to Amazon SNS. It depends on what (if any) server environment you have... Hope that helps!Richard ForsytheRF
