We have such great authors on the fedi. Is there a group or recurring event for reading them, to give them exposure, discuss their work, and move some copies?

I’ve wondered this same thing about photos of Japan for years, and he nailed it.

Good morning, good people. If you're new around here, allow me a suggestion: please don't make this your Twitter copy dump!

Meaning: I know it's easy to do, but please don't just auto-crosspost your tweets here hoping for the best, because one unfortunate side effect is that you pay less attention to your Masto account than your Twitter account which never works out.

So, if you're really interested in this here construct, give it some respect and more than just second-hand energy 😉

Thanks!

Another tip: Every Mastodon account has RSS built in. Just add .rss to the end of the URL for your account, e.g. merveilles.town/@lrhodes.rss

That lets people follow your public posts from an RSS reader, but it's also useful if you wanted to use IFTTT to crosspost your public posts to another platform.

Ich glaube, ich habe nie meine persönliche Anleitung fürs sich produktiv Sorgen machen geteilt.
Es hilft mir, dieses Schema immer mal wieder anzusehen, daher wollte ich es mal teilen. Ich hab es mir selbst ausgedacht... für sowas hab ich so viele #Notizbücher. Hab in jedem #journal eines kleben... #BuJo #BulletJournal #Angst #Sorgen #selfcare #psychoHygiene #journaling

Danke, dass ich das Teilen durfte.

Anyone have any suggestions for masto instances that might be a little more community oriented? I'm a fan of screaming about the downfall of human civilization and music. Sometimes games.

Spotify Is Acquiring Two Major Podcast Surveillance Ad Tech Platforms

https://daringfireball.net/linked/2022/02/17/spotify-chartable-podsights

> Spotify [is] trying to usurp podcasting as we know it — one of the last and brightest bastions of the open, simple, private, transparent internet — and turn it into a privately-owned, gated, complicated, invasive, utterly closed platform. Spotify is trying to do to podcasting what Facebook did to “having your own website”.

💯

Thought experiment: You can spend 10-15€ on spotify each month, meaning 120-180€ per year. For music there can disappear at any moment and that you'll never own, or you can spend 10-15€ each months to buy an album on Bandcamp (or any other service that provides DRM-free downloads), support the artists more and retain your personal music library even when Bandcamp goes out of business.

The former is a subscription plan, the latter is an investment plan.
