Neil Young Leaves Facebook & Instagram Over “Unconscionable” Policies for AI Chatbot Conversations With Children

Substreamer appears to be free but not open source
Tempo I believe is free and open source

What is up with these CAPS? Are we copying the typographic INCONTINENCE of Trump?
I mean he's literally a boomer.

Honestly, good on him.
More people should do the same.
The way people turned up their nose at the Fediverse when the Muskening happened to Twitter was heartbreaking. I knew social media was an addiction but when you find out your dealer is an absolute monster how do you not go looking for a new supplier?
But they all discarded Mastodon et al as cringe and teduoust. Like, the way even trans women influencers stayed on Twitter blew my mind. When bluesky got off the ground there was finally some migration, but not enough.
It really showed me how many of the "anti-capitalist" and the "anarchism" and "mutual aid" people were all just talk. The mutual-aid volunteer-based platform exists and you stuck with the fascist because it was easy and you're too cool for the nerd shit.

Well I hope Neil Young will remember: Zuckerberg don't want him around, anyhow.

I think a lot of that started ironically and then bled over to normal conversations.
I think it's still mostly used ironically. Though, it's hard to know anymore. I know it is among my social circles, at least.

Once again, Neil Young reminds us that he has a gargantuan penis.

Well, it's not like Ted Nugent is writing any new music. He probably doesn't have anything better to do anyway.
I'm sure he is still capable of shitting his pants and not showering.

i mean really tho, how much more does he have after wang dang sweet poontang?
fuken magnum opus direct from the southern fried shakespeare right there.
there were about 4 minutes when i was 13 that i thought he was worth listening to.

Using caps for emphasis in places where formatting options don’t exist is a practice as old as the internet. I remember doing it in the usenet days.
It's a practice at least as old as type itself. It seems the attention Trump garnered, and the highlighting of his stereotypical Boomer typing, have merged the two in some people's minds.
We're at a unique crossroad where Gen X and Y grew up with their grandparents mostly refusing to use cell phones and their parents mostly fumbling with them. Now Gen Z and "Alpha" are growing up with grandparents who have mostly been shamed into acceptable text etiquette, and parents who are mostly as tech savvy as the next parent and who were there when the deep magic was written (so to speak).
Mango Mussolini's narcissism is as pervasive as his parasitism so it's no wonder the lecherous rapist's sins against modern digital convention survived along with him. Some spin that as brilliant tactics but I'm not so sure. I'd wager it's a coincidence he leaned into because it garnered attention.
Most of those now driving online discourse hadn't had the same exposure to that style of texting prior to the 2016 US Presidential election cycle as preceding generations. So it seems novel to them. It's history and perspective bring formed in real time.

So based

I tried tidal about two years ago and they had even less of what I listen to than Spotify. But maybe I should check in again and see what's different, because nothing stays the same for long.
If you don't want to support an American company, you could also try Qobuz.

am i supposed to care about this?

I hope Zuckerberg remembers nobody wants him around either. He probably thinks that 30 mil/year makes him bulletproof, the little shit.

If you don't care, don't comment.

Quite a normal thing to do no? Way before Trump got elected
-
I have noticed people have changed the way they type since around 2016, when trump became president. The amount of people putting "Sad." Behind a sentence is mindblowing. He gave so many people severe brainworms.
Oh that is not all. Future generations might be able to map all the brain rot that man has caused.
-
If you don't care, don't comment.
It would help to know why one should care as not everyone is in the know what this person is about.

Don't care? Don't whine.

And it's perfectly possible to ask that question without coming across like an ass.
