  • I haven't really dived down the customization rabbit hole for linux yet, but I've been poking around, and after seeing stuff like this tons of the stuff that was on UNIXporn, it makes me want to seriously try out some of the other DE's that are out there.

  • I think people are used to a web that’s solely focused on viral content as opposed to deeply engaging content. For that reason people don’t think their contributions are valuable and decide to not post.

    The truth of the matter is actually that real communities are dependent on the non viral content. So it’s important to reframe how we act in a more tight knit web community and treat it more like a party than a competition to have the most viral piece of media.

    The sooner we can get back to casual conversation as a means for real community building, the sooner we can get away from the perpetual viral doom scroll environments.

  • Same experience here. Definitely feels high priority based on my experience so far.

  • This band is for real crazy. Friend recommended I listen to their fingerprints album, which is basically just a bunch of short song nuggets that are a few seconds long. It’s pretty ridiculous, but really fun.

  • What makes a concert great for you?

  • It’s for sure possible without an huge audience. Sometimes being able to capture even an audience of 5-10 strangers can be powerful.

    I played a show in Seattle at a bar last September and during one of our songs, I saw someone in the audience look to their friend and mouth “what the fuck” - as in we had sounded really good and they were shocked by that.

    Afterwards we had a really great conversation and that person told us we were one of the best bands she had seen at that bar.

    I think the energy thing is something that is palpable when the music is just undeniably good and fills the room, crowds just throw fuel onto the fire.

  • I’ve been going to punk shows and playing in bands for years.

    One of my favorite things about a show is when a band is absolutely crushing it and there’s just an electric feeling in the air. It’s hard to describe, but the music gets the entire room of people synchronized in vibe and people just want to move and have fun.

    It’s a rare thing, but when it happens, it’s unreal. As a musician, I’ve been chasing this high my entire life. It’s an incredibly hard thing to do, because sometimes the best music feels like it’s on the edge of falling apart, but doesn’t… that might be what makes it so great.

  • How many of you are making your own music?

    Jump

  • I haven’t been able to find anything like this yet.

    One thing I’ve noticed about a lot of Reddit music sharing communities is that they tend to be pretty devoid of useful feedback/community generally. People want to just drop their content and bounce.

    If Lemmy were to have an instance for a music sharing community, I think it would need to be pretty heavily moderated.

  • I like this significantly better than Mastodon

    Jump

  • I assume this is because of adhering to ActivityPub standards?

  • What niche reddit community do you want to see find a place on the fediverse?

    Jump

  • r/liveaudio r/mixingandmastering r/bitwig r/ableton r/ethereum

    all of the Linux subreddits I browse + r/selfhosted, r/homelab, r/datahoarder.

    all of these seem like easy fits for the fediverse.

  • lemmy.ml is overloaded, use other instances instead

  • I was able to get accepted in less than a few hours. I think it really just depends on what time of day you're registering, and when they're reviewing registrations.

  • Capitalistic forces undermine real tools for human connection. They're sole focus is to extract value, and that is incongruent with a healthy network. Fediverse and other p2p tech will definitely be the foundation for a future web.
