All the hoopla around the opening of Ikea ...

... reminds me of the 2004 Czech documentary Český sen (Czech Dream);

But the documentary was much more fun.

He mentions diVine, their decentralised reboot of Vine - the original short video app - using the Nostr protocol. In the fediverse we have Loops (or we will when it's fully functional?) using ActivityPub. Then there's Spark being built for ATProto.
It would boost the network effect of all 3 if they interoperated with each other. Before anyone mentions XKCD #927, yes, I'm aware.

A new protocol obviously isn't the solution here. Another possibility is a bridge specifically for short video services. But as with BridgyFed, if it's opt-in it doesn't combine the network effects of the various services, and if it's opt-out the maintainers will be ruthlessly brigaded. By people who neither understand nor care about the difference between interoperability and scraping. See;

It's a wicked problem.

Maybe an FEP that explains how to natively publish media over all 3 protocols could be the solution?
I believe Ghost syndicates posts over both ActivityPub and ATProto. I've also heard that Friendica has a module for syndicating posts via ATProto, as well as ActivityPub. There doesn't seem to be much support for interop with Nostr, as yet, which seems a shame.
