Of all the music apps, why? I HATE Youtube Music. I only use it because I get it free with Youtube Premium, but its a shit app. Google Music and Google Podcasts died for this?

First off, I can’t separate my podcasts from my music like I used to when we had two discrete apps, so whenever I want to listen to one, it erases the queue for the other. Why not have the ability to have seperate playlists for each?

Then there was the whole “merging your liked Youtube videos with your liked songs”, so you’d get the audio from a 7 minute video playing at random intervals while you’re just trying to listen to music. To their credit, they did fix that after several months of user complaints.

It also crashes fairly regularly when I’m broadcasting to my Google home speaker, which is actually kind of funny when you think about it.

All in all, 2/10 app, would not recommend.

Ah, sweet, new manmade horrors beyond my comprehension.

AI “art” removes the hurdle for the wealthy of actually having talent to produce “art”, while simultaneously removing the artist’s ability to produce wealth from their talents.

Everytime someone shares an AI generated video, song, picture, etc., I cringe a little. Its just not good, or at best, anything that couldn’t be produced by a reasonably capable artist, but hey at least its free, right?

I take it you never used a tape player or VCR.

A U-turn

Oh god, Ive been using them wrong this whole time?!?!

I guess I am so used to other social media I had assumed it was a like button.

Fr. I thought we would have gotten this out of our system by now.

Who’s thoir?

Can we leave the karma system and awards with Reddit? Allowing voting in comment sections for pseudo-moderation by the users is good, but when it turns into a scoring system the conversation devolves into a competition to see who can craft the most palatable opinion to get the most imaginary internet points.

Despite all my thoughtful and helpful comments I made in my 11 years on reddit, you know what my top comment was?

• Comes in
• Kills the Queen
• Tanks the economy
• Leaves

What a legacy.

47k updoots, and 27 awards.

Its hard to justify it for the same reasons we can’t have Shisha bars and smoking lounges (at least where I live): 2nd hand smoke.

I can, as a non drinker, go to a bar and have myself a soda, and leave there as sober as when I walked in. If I do that in a room where everyone is smoking up, I will get high from the second hand smoke whether I want to for not.

I mean, why not just have a general social club with coffee/food, games, etc, and just step outside for a puff?
