@fredbrooker I suspect he will cope without me.

@hankg I already have Apple Music which is my primary service, but I shall also be self-hosting, likely something like Jellyfin. I prefer something cross-platform where possible.

@mlanger I'm sitting in a hotel lounge listening to a bunch of generic no-name covers of Christmas-related tracks and it just makes me realise how it's all being reduced to background noise with no value, which makes me sad.

I’m a slave to the system. If I don’t release on Spotify, I lose a big chunk of my audience. And I’d have to give up all that tasty barely breaking even.

never paid for it, think I set up an account years ago will probably delete that too.

You weren’t outraged enough by Spotify paying hundreds of millions to Joe Rogan?

Woop, congrats! 🙌 I did the same last year and curating mixtapes (@mixtape) of Fedi artists is what came of it. Short post-Christmas hiatus at the mo but the next one is coming soon: nham.co.uk
