So why not use Peertube as the distribution medium and just build a UI? Seems like it'd be a lot easier than building an entirely new product.

I'm not the authors of Loop nor have I ever tried to contribute to PeerTube so I'm not in the best position to answer that.

What I will say is that I have tried self-hosting PeerTube in the past and it felt very heavy-duty, and I'm not sure I would try to host it again.

Let them build it however they want. The important thing is that it's ActivityPub compliant. Interoperability counts.

Not to mention YouTube has shorts for years now
