Does anyone else self-host their music? (I suppose this would also be a thing if you stream from Spotify) but my music device greatly benefits from having some form of Internet connection for when I want to update it.
I self-host, so when I add music to my server my phone sees it automatically. I wouldn’t want to copy my music onto my server and onto an mp3 device, nor do I want to pay for separate internet service on an mp3 device.
Airsonic, which is a fork of a fork of subsonic. It works great for music. Video support is there, but finnecky.
On Android I use DSub, which is/was a paid app. It works great, best airsonic/subsonic app I’ve used (all subsonic apps work with airsonic).
When you add music to your “now playing” on your device it cashes the tracks and doesn’t delete them until the cache reaches a certain size, which you can set in your preferences. So you could set the cache to 50 gigs or whatever and pre-load 50 gigs of your favorite songs from your server. Or just cache/stream on the fly from wherever via your phone’s data or random wifi.
I still use reddit when I need to ask some obscure question about some topic that isn’t well represented on Lemmy yet. I don’t browse or lurk anymore though. (Kind of like how some people just use Facebook for communication and not for the newsfeed.)
Check out beehaw if you’re worried about missing news. That lemmy instance has way less shitposting and seems to have healthy discussion.
Between the mixed feeds on Lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, and beehaw I haven’t missed any big things that I’m aware of. I have other friends on discord and irl and if they talk about a big news story it’s never something I missed.
Sorry to be the semantics guy, but if “asexual” is “non-sexual” wouldn’t “aphobic” and “aspec” mean “non-phobic” and “not on the spectrum” respectively?
Wouldn’t you want to use “acephobic” or something? Like if it were atheism awareness week, I feel like you wouldn’t use “aphobic” again, just because atheist and asexual both have the “a-” prefix.

Man, you’d think that if there was only, say, 100 people a day using this service they could just scale the service down. Whatever the number of active users they could just scale the service down, that number isn’t likely to spike again ever (and even if it did no one would be surprised if there were service interruptions on a service that old).
Maybe it’s a security issue? But there are no credit card transactions in online multiplayer? Idk.
I still haven’t gotten into 3d printing, so take this with a grain of salt, but,
The technology is always improving. Waiting will always get you something more advanced, but if you have something you want to do with a 3D printer, just get one. Eventually you’ll get a better one either way. If you’ll have fun with it now and you have the time, jump in. :)
Back in the day I used to really like browsing soundcloud, listening to mashups, indie artists, and whatnot. Eventually soundcloud got too big and took down a lot of content (probably due to copyright) and introduced paid “pro” accounts. Is there a place like the early soundcloud on the fediverse?
Funkwhale is interesting, but feels more like a plex/subsonic/jellyfin server than a social media place. I can’t follow artists on Funkwhale and listen to their latest posts. There isn’t a “feed” anywhere, it’s more like a giant shared-music server (unless I’m missing something).
One financial lesson they should teach in school is that most of the things we buy have to be paid for twice. There’s the first price, usually paid in dollars, just to gain possession of the desired thing, whatever it is: a book, a budgeting app, a unicycle, a bundle of kale. But then, in order to make use of the thing, you...
