RSS feeds, Gemini and Gopher. Always good stuff there, and feels cosier than social media!

RFF will be missed! For Fedi music you could try https://theindiebeat.fm/ … or this one has mixes rather than radio https://www.audiointerface.org/

loops.video is in development, from the same dev who did Pixelfed

This is the answer! Most people will not ever install a new operating system.

To be honest, I’m Irish and it seems to me colonialism influences a country to cling to their cultural practices more fiercely. Couple that with massive inter-generational trauma. In the case of Ireland, unfortunately that meant we had a brutal theocracy for decades after the British left.

I think the only reason Ireland is in any way more progressive now is because they let us join the European Union, and they gave us money!

Anyway I think you sound like a great person and the best of luck. I emigrated myself too, to England ironically…

Self hosted ‘The Lounge’ is great.

That’s very weird! So you get the error message when you run faircamp --preview after editing your .eno?

And is there one .eno in your “Artist Name” folder, and another .eno in each “Release” folder?

If you’re on Mastodon or similar, I recommend the #faircamp tag, loads of us try to help out on that! There may be someone more familiar with faircamp on Mac & brew who can help…

If not, you could try making an issue here: https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/faircamp/issues

If you’re working from something like my tutorial here, all the Linux instructions and commands will be the same using Brew + Terminal :)

Hello! If you’ve installed it with brew, you have faircamp working (no need for Linux). Are you familiar with Terminal? And how to use “cd” to move around? Is that what you mean by “point it to” your faircamp folder? For example, you would just type “cd /path/to/your/faircamp/folder”

It doesn’t matter where the faircamp folder is, it will build the site wherever you run the faircamp —preview command. (Sorry my phone isn’t formatting this correctly, there are two hyphens before “preview” 😆)

Not sure about official Mastodon app, but I am following loads of hashtags on Mastoot.

Yep Ice Cubes is great, you can have loads of timelines on there if you want. Mastoot is also great, really nice to use and easy on the eye.

I'm just using emacs org-mode and Obsidian for task management, and keeping track of my learning new code-y things... but no backlinks or anything yet. Was trying Zettlr as well. Waiting for an excuse to get really fancy with it.
