Could you do a solid prank for this random internet stranger and queue up the following:

8 x one favorite slightly annoying song (‘moves like jagger’, or ‘we built this city’ would be my suggestion)

1 x Photograph (pause for the unison sigh of relief from the patrons)

1+ x the same slightly annoying song played in a row already.

I’ll bring popcorn.

Thank you!

You know, we’ve already got an app to go to deal with Zucks’ social media hole. It would be nice to have a space that wasn’t connected to it. Then we all get the best of both worlds.

If you close your eyes, you can metaphorically hear the tides changing on the music streaming industry. The fall of Netflix is such a stark reminder of how fast these convenient services can morph into user hostile experiences.

Plus, there is the added philosophical discussion about what it means to allow a centralized corporate media conglomerate to curate your music for you. I’d imagine that their insentivisation structure over what should be heard is different than yours.

For serious though, I hypothesize that your library/playlist data (xml, maybe? somewhere? I’m just starting the journey of offloading.) is more valuable to users than the music itself. Next step is figuring out how to export Spotify’s data.

Well, it seems there is a bit of a learning curve. I, and most likely you, still haven’t figured out the mechanics of Lemmy and the federverse. Give it time,

Just like Digg before Reddit, we will soon adept. The apps will get better and things will make more sense.

It may look and work slightly different, but with a little work, maybe this will be the communities that thrives the longest…

At least until the ads, bots, and CEOs begin infesting our home again. then I guess we just got to torch it and build a new home.

Now go unpack your favourite content. Lets make this place sing!
