Money Always Fucks Things Up
So, you want to rake in Bandcamp ? - Hostile Corporate Takeovers..
*Just like Livejournal, Twitter, etc. things move on, as the world continues to regress.
Bandcamp, once the world haven for indies, has been corporatized, and will soon become another mySpace Gootube ghost town...
The sale of Bandcamp to Songtradr and the subsequent layoff of half of Bandcamp's staff has gotten a lot of folks
thinking about Bandcamp alternatives. That's fantastic, and I really hope that several of these take off and
become successful. But I'd like to caution folks on missing the mark of what makes Bandcamp so successful and
how to make something that musicians and labels can use and enjoy. [...]
Musicians are harried folks. They are concerned about making music and getting their music out there as quickly
and painlessly as possible. They don't give a shit about licenses or federation or any of the things that
techies care about. [...] Solve musician problems first. If your service is "just one more service" that folks
need to log into then they'll ignore it. They'll use that time to ship merch or read email or any of the myriad
other things that working musicians need to do. The internet is truly dead due to corporatocracy via
*Fokken ze Industrial Military Medical Media Banking Complex
F*ck Communist China CCP and TikTok 5G Wuhan Virus
F*ck the Ukraine bioweapon labs and human trafficking
Ban fake news CNN (communist news network)
Don't watch on YT, tell Gootube to go to hell..
Don't watch TV of stream on mainstream
Joker's Jukebox, Fuck That Noise !!
A night at the Opera, Use Duck-duck-go!
