Boost, but that’s partially because the dev jumped ship with the Reddit API stuff, and it’s pretty damn good. Won’t say it has feature parity with whatever the latest is, but I don’t know what I don’t know, and he fixes stuff as they come up. Been on it for probably 10+ years at this point now I’d think?
More like noted to check out further, but it looks promising! Big question is functionality with Android Auto, which if it’s just a website, would be unlikely, but still good to have for home use! It has new releases I’d be looking for on it already too, one album literally came out yesterday and it’s on there.
I’ll be honest, it could be recorded through a tin can and I probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference lol. As long as it shows me new songs every now and then, and gives me varied radio playlists, I’m happy.
Interesting. I’m fine if I gotta scroll a bit, I usually set it up before I leave. I’ll give it a look!
I do as well, and that’ll be the hardest thing to lose, if I can’t find a good equivalent. Cause I have to swap back and forth from Android Auto to the BT player otherwise, and that suuuuuucks.
I’ve heard of it, it’s on my list. My only real qualm is that I want a good “radio”. I don’t do play lists, I just hit Supermix on YT and let it play through. Spotify tried to give me the “average” of all my liked songs, so I’d end up with a Playlist that repeated the same 50 songs or so. YT Music seemed to give me varied music at a similar ratio of my liked genres, which was exactly what I wanted.
Does it have a radio function similar to that?
What’s the free music streaming service you use that has no ads? I’d like to try it, I’m obviously in the market.
Lmao buddy resorts to this and then blocks me. What a small human.
Reagan and Citizens United continue to be the largest umbrellas of resulting bad policy in American history, imo.
I have a reminder to cancel before the increase. It was, imo, a good deal for no ads, bolstered creator support in YT (Premium views were worth more than free, iirc), and to get YT Music, which I liked more than Spotify.
For $16/mo, I’ll set up ad-free options for YT and I’ll figure something out for music.
True. I use it more for sports updates and such, which was the issue. I’d follow an NFL starter pack, and I’d get some journalists and insiders, and then just some random dudes with a podcast from 2 years ago and now they write about Anime and van life or something. Just doesn’t work in its current format like that lol.
Aside from these forum style accounts, BlueSky is the only actual social media I have, and my engagement is pretty low. But it serves its purpose for me
That was my thought. I think some of them work that way; I do have one that gets posted to the feed when someone responds ONLY with “overheard”, so no extra stuff gets posted. It’s pretty funny to scroll sometimes lol.
It just needs some better filtering somehow.
Eh. They have 2 different purposes in my mind. Here, I want to discuss things and learn specifics or engage in a topic. On Twitter/BlueSky/Mastodon type social media, I’d rather just scroll it and not engage. I want to see the “headlines”, and then decide to delve deeper elsewhere if it warrants. Which is why the starter packs didn’t work for me, because it consistently served me content I didn’t care to see. Here, I’ll check out /all just to see what is floating around in other circles.
Sure, I didn’t necessarily think it was going to “solve” anything, it was more just a proposed solution that does not work in practice in its current form.
My big issue with starter packs was that I’d follow them, and they’d have some random content creator in it that was tangentially related to the starter pack. Great, that’s fine. I don’t need the same 12 people giving me news and updates, etc.
The problem was that they would inevitably be on my feed, constantly talking about other stuff I am not interested in, and hardly ever discussing the starter pack subject. Which again, is fine. But I don’t want that, I wanted the starter pack subject matter, and get unrelated content. So I just unfollowed all the starter packs.
Lmao it was surreal. The next viewing was there early in the driveway waiting to go in, and they heard a like crashing noise, then the people inside quickly left, and made it a point to say “yeah the counter was already broken” and just dipped lmao. The 2nd groups realtor told ours, because obviously why wouldn’t they lol
Lol the shit hole state part was all the damning evidence I needed.
Yeah, it just isn’t worth it. Selling is, all things considered, pretty painless, especially if you have no work needed. Just sit and listen to offers, and try to determine which ones are real people vs private equity if you want. Although when I sold mine, we had people literally break our counter during a viewing? Lmao so that kinda sucked but it was a minor inconvenience.
Slow down just a little there
