Reddit will be also used along with it until it’s demise

If people keep using it, it won’t die. That’s how websites that like work. Stop using reddit.

So many reddit mods were angry power-hungry assholes. I don’t feel sorry for them just as much as I don’t feel sorry for reddit’s hopeventual collapse. I can’t count how many times I had BS moderation enacted, then when I was perfectly civil, usually just asking for basic clarification as to why something was removed, was instantly silenced from further communication with the mods with threats of potential removal from participation in the sub or reddit entirely. I am not alone in this experience.

I run a discord server and freely explain to user that they are welcome to disagree with me, openly and freely, as while I run this unofficial community server about an event I don’t own/operate,

The same is for a reddit mod, especially for broad topics and localities.

Unfortunately I do see the potential for similar behavior here in the fediverse. I can’t say I know how to address it entirely, but I know I can act the way that’s fair to the community of which I am only an administrator, not a ruler nor creator.

Pittsburgh is not the Midwest, it’s literally in a coastal state. Lmao

Idk, I haven’t paid a dime in over 12 years and never saw an ad (with blocking). Never received spam or had features removed or shitified. Lastfm is one of the few places to have done it right imo. Don’t get me wrong, self hosting is great, but self host the music before you care about the stats

What’s wrong with last.fm? I’ve used them since 2007 and imo they’re way better than something like Spotify. Lastfm is free.

Bitwarden has been amazing for me and I’m slowly getting my family to use it as well

maybe in the UK, but US radio is trash.

Ditch Plex and get Jellyfin. Use Symfonium to play your music on your phone.

The radio is not an answer. I stopped listening to it in 2006 when I installed a new car radio that had an AUX input for my iPod. I recently had to use a car that didn’t have BT audio and was forced to use FM. It was horrific. The same playlists from 2006, but with longer and more frequent ads. I tried every station I could find and it was the same deal.

Symfonium has been amazing! The only thing I was sad to lose from Plex when I switched to the superior FOSS alternative Jellyfin was Plexamp. There was a Finamp app but it was missing a lot and didn’t work too well. Symfonium on the other hand has been a dream come true.

This isn’t reddit, read the whole post before suggesting just another streaming service.

Spotify just shows you want they want you to listen to, just like any other streaming service. I’ve found more cool music within the past few years thanks to music communities than I ever did from Spotify, not to mention the giant amount of music that isn’t even on Spotify to begin with.

How else do you apply pressure to the dickhead? a 2 day protest doesn’t do anything impactful. What if the American/French Revolution only lasted 2 days?
