True and that’s their choice, which is cool they have that option. Personally I have my own solo instance and I tend to interact with anyone, unless they’re an arsehole or on some nasty shit.
The indie web gives users lots of options for interaction without manipulation, well at least not from big corps etc.
Some live footage of Liotia has appeared... I'm playing bass lol, well I have a bass guitar in my hand, playing might be a bit of a stretch. Very stripped back version of HDYK.
Got a cool T-Shirt on though.

The first online communities, as far as I’m aware, gathered around niche interests. My first experience of communities were WinMX chat rooms, then music forums. That felt like peak internet to me.
Maybe is just the vibe of smaller communities?
Woke up with this in my head, nice bit of story telling rap from the UK 2000s vintage.

The funny thing with Nostr and the Fediverse is it’s a whole heap of people looking for an interoperable network without walled gardens etc.
Basically we all want The Internet. These protocols are really us taking it back to what it was pre Facebacon, X etc, maybe this is to Gen X what the 1950s was to boomers?
I know the feeling, I still peak at MySpace from time to time.
Good morning. 👋
Ok he’s had 48 hours, what’s Biden doing to get the news cycle back?
Maybe he shits how own foot off?
Hmm supposed to be shoots but shits is good.

It’s a business though right? I mean how else are they going to provide all those channels, unless you get an ad every time you’re zapped…
If it’s done as a reasonable percentage I’m cool with that, if it’s a flat fee that would put me off.
How do they currently pay people?
I spent a fair bit of time with Keith LeBlanc who was the drummer at Sugar Hill and cut a lot of the Fubky 4 Plus 1, Kool Moe Dee, Grandmaster Flash etc. Sylvia Robinson was very happy when drum machines became popular… a lot of drummers lost their jobs. Keith took a different path and became the most in demand programmer in New York. There’s always been culture shifts and talented people adapt, trouble is talented people don’t run Universal. Those folks make Suge Knight look like a pussy.
It’s already a kind of that. Most pop production sessions, from what I hear, start with listening to whatever is hot at that time. Then it’s a case of making something as similar as possible without drawing too many parallels as to get sued.
Get a good or interesting person, whack a dollop of ottertune on it and put it out.
There’s so much more I could write but it’s all pretty self evident. Universal execs are going to be very happy not to have to deal with musicians, producers and artists, they’ve always been a pain, what with all their opinions and feelings.
Now their children play at music with prompts, like even more so than Mark Ronson.
Innit! Maybe that’s why it’s $865k? was meant to be $1m.
I dunno, if I had that to spare, I’d love to see how many ear puns I could get in.
