Wafrn: a tumblr clone that federates with fedi and now also has opt in native bluesky

That's how it was DJing for me. I never made a lot of money. But I always enjoyed sharing the music. LOL, perhaps someday I will find someone to pay me to do it. But not everyone can be as lucky as Rodney anonymous. Of course it doesn't hurt that he was famous as well:-)
lots of indie musicians on the fediverse.

TY for linking.
Asking for constructive criticism reasons, is there a reason you don't watch or listen? I've been told my mic quality bothers folk, so working on getting a new setup for that this week hopefully.
If you just don't listen because you're not a consumer of that kind of content or just not interested, totally understand. I just thriving on constructive criticism.
You don't always need an expensive microphone. But a pop filter can make a much bigger impact than you would believe. Honestly the thing I see a lot of YouTubers using often that seems to work out quite well are lavalier mics. Not the traditional desktop microphones.
A lavalier microphone attached to a collar or lapel. Is generally outside of the direct path of your voice. So the need for pop filtering Etc is reduced. Though many of them do provide filters for it. Further since they are generally clipped to you the distance between you and them doesn't change much. Meaning that your levels stay much more consistent and even. No leaning away from mic and then back in. And they sometimes have a few less issues with assonance.
That's not even touching the headaches that can be simply capturing footage or streaming in obs. That rabbit hole goes deep. It's also a lot of fun with a lot of opportunity to be creative.
And as I said in my other post I just don't tend to listen to many podcasts at all. I have listened to behind the bastards a little bit in the past, Pod save America a couple times. Even the Retro hour a few times with RMC. But it's just never been something that I have a lot of time available to focus on or desire to. Though I might give it a try.

Rodney Anonymous being one of them. Well I guess he's not necessarily indy? Though he's definitely not mainstream. Outside of Punk Rock Girl I'm not sure how much else of their catalog got play.. But they are legends up in Philadelphia. Which is where he DJs once a month for ynot radio.
The fediverse provides a platform individuals can completely control if they want. Or at least be free of a lot of unsavory restrictions and associations. And for a punk group like Rodney's, that is even more important.

Fantastic idea! I miss Tumblr terribly ever since the Great Porn Ban of 2018, even though I never even reblogged or followed 'adult' blogs. I just wanted to reblog holsum and funny fanart, but fuck giving into puritan corpo censorship.
What's the moderation policy on genocide denial and the like? I hate having to ask this, but having heard too many people deny the Holodomor on here, I feel it necessary to make the inquiry.
For that matter, more generally, are you prepared, in terms of moderation structure, for the massive amount of legitimately disturbing material that's going to pass through the site and will need to be removed if the site grows beyond a few hundred users? I would hate to join and then see this crash because of (completely understandable) moderator/admin burnout at the depravity and speed of mankind's worst elements.

Is registration on the wafrn website backlogged? I submitted a registration bout 12 hours ago, and the registration page said to wait a few hours for review. Got nothin in my email just yet. Not that I'm antsy, and there's no rush; just hoping to know when I should follow up to log in :u

I never understood what tumblr was. How is it any different from twitter etc... ?

For me, Tumblr was an online culture different from the ADHD of other journaling/blogging platforms like Instagram or Twitter. You could find conversations in tags, gifs didn't lag my browser to hell, fan content was proliferous there, webpages could be personalized to the lengths you might've gone to in MySpace. It was the place to find fandoms and fandom content, even for the most obscure series. There were no ads. And I felt like gifs/texts of porn and kinks were made more accessible when searched for by tags.
There was no algorithm - discovery of new blogs was just subscribing to tags & maybe following who your followed-people followed, the way the fediverse kinda is.
I felt like the presentation was good to relish each post of content with less distraction, and the pagination + scroll browsing was just enough to keep me addicted.
Someone correct me if I'm remembering it wrong.
RIP 2011 Tumblr
