If it wasn't Meta, I would almost be okay with this. If I genuinely believed that my privacy was being preserved, I think it'd be a fair trade.

I've liked Season 6 significantly better than everything else after season 2. It's not nearly as good, but most of the lame BS isn't there.

I totally agree. It doesn’t make any sense at this price. I just wanted to share it, and see what other people thought about it.

Think of it as different home screen. I personally like it, because the original home screen was slow and bloated with things I didn't care about. I just want it to launch Plex, YouTube, Jellyfin, etc.

That sucks, I'm mostly a desktop user, so that's unfortunate to know.

Yep, I think the last sentence was a sneak preview of the new voice. Although, that was explicitly communicated.

Yeah, I just post things that I find and like, or find interesting. Lol I only have a few internal rules, like:

• No political BS (let's just chill and hangout)
• Nothing inflammatory, or targeted (unless it messes with right to repair, or tech privacy)
• Nothing hyper localized (like a city)

Everything else that's interesting is on the table!

Something worth mentioning is that android auto will not work for graphene. I was so on board until that. It’s understandable why that’s the case though.

That's definitely one way of doing it. You are correct though, there are no ways to block podcasts.

Yeah, this community doesn’t seem very vocal. I think when I posted this I had less than 50 subs to the community as well, which probably plays a big hand in it.

Luckily though, this is a cross post and the original seemed to have more eyes than here.

Im glad you found it!

I've done it for the pride and accomplishment mostly lol I thoroughly like being able to choose what apps I use to access music.

I also bounced around from service to service, so having a nice home base is awesome, and there is a ton of music that wasn't ever able on Spotify that I can now listen to.

Although the process is a bit hands on now, I appreciate looking through YouTube/bandcamp to deliberately listen and discover. The intention behind it really makes it feel more organic than relying on an algorithm/influencer playlists

I have my own server, but I could never escape discovery. It's equally as important as sitting down and listening to an album for me.

I've supplemented discover with YouTube/bandcamp. I add the music to playlists/wishlist and periodically buy from them.
