FistfulOfStars

This is great, thank you.

I miss human DJ’s.

To be more specific, I miss the left-of-the-dial 11pm variety.

And Shoutcast-style radio with live DJ’s. I still spin up a stream every now and then, but it’s not the same as it used to be.

the content seemed to be less visible even to his subscribers

Am I the only one who still uses the subscriptions page? I get a chronological list of all my subscribed channel’s video releases. I have seen zero indication that I’m missing anything at all, and I fairly frequently go to channel’s pages to check that my subscription list is complete.

I’ve never clicked a single notification bell, and don’t rely on the home page’s recommendations/sorting, unless I’m actively seeking out new recommendations.

IPFS (or similar tech) is the only sustainable solution for media hosting on federated platforms.

Permanence is important - old posts with dead media links is bad for society IMO - but we can’t expect volunteer instance admins to be held responsible for something as complex and expensive as permanent media hosting.
