Seems like Stitcher is owned by SiriusXM, so I imagine that whole catalog will simply migrate over there.

I'm very much a rocky road / cookie dough / moose tracks kinda fella!

Reddit ramble: I nuked my reddit history of 16 years (as of this upcoming July 10) without thinking to download it first. I was a bit saddened at first, because I realized that my reddit history was about as close to a diary as I had kept from the time I was a high school senior. Given digital footprint and whatnot, I'm sure it's mostly for the best that it's all in the ether now. The now bare profile is a decent if bittersweet deterrent keeping me from hopping right back onto that site. But! I did remember that I had another handle that I used as my primary for a handful of years (got locked out of it, so I went back to my original one), so I have those vignettes of myself to look back on.

That’s pretty wild, because it’s notoriously introverted up here and kind of a difficult city in which to make friends — for that still be better than the burbs is interesting to hear.

I’ve had good experiences with Castbox.

Oh man, ain’t that the truth. I really gotta make a point to get a backup of all my photos from Google Photos onto a hard drive one of these days. Problem is, Google Takeout batches only last about a week or so and I have a very hefty amount of data to get out. The alternative is to download it month by month, year by year, which I’m not looking forward to doing at all.

Sure thing! Hope you find a great read in there!

It’s a great one! Love going there when I’m feeling indecisive about my next book. Ignore my sizable TBR shelf, nothing to see here.

Yes and no. Yes, there is no Fediverse-wide admin to moderate content since everything is decentralized, but instances and their subcommunities do, and each one is free to implement their own rules. We're on Beehaw, which is pretty strongly committed to fostering a community with a positive culture and tone, and while there is a good amount of leeway for free discussion (from what I've seen in just 2 weeks here), I imagine getting too vocal about wishing that kind of thing might get attention from the Beehaw mods at some point.

Not that I don't fully understand your emotions.

I saw somewhere recently (don't remember if it was on Lemmy, reddit, or elsewhere), where a couple of folks were getting into it because a FOSS contributor didn't recognize the importance of accounting for accessibility in design. They thought that projects as whole did not have a responsibility to account for those design considerations, and that anyone who wants to see those implemented have to do it themselves. While technically the truth in that this is all effectively volunteer work and developers work on what they want to work on, it's something that could be alleviated by making it a core value of FOSS development. Asking questions like:

• This is a point-click-drag interaction, but how would a person do this with a keyboard only?
• These two components are identified using color, but what if a user is colorblind?
• There are buttons labeled with iconography only, but what if a user cannot see it and uses a screen reader to interact with everything?

It's tough because the disability community in aggregate face steeper financial hurdles for a number of reasons, and could perhaps benefit the most from freely available, accessible tech.

Oh you're triggering some serious memories with this. I don't manage offline music libraries like I used to, I pretty much stream everything or throw on a vinyl, but when I did Amarok was perfection.

Well, fancy meeting you out here too!

I’ll be interested to see what my decidedly vegetarian SO thinks about this (I’m mainly vegetarian but am more omnivorous). We opt for Impossible where available, and it’ll be interesting to see if either of us gravitate to it.

I know it's the actual name of the little alien, and it's a decidedly cute one, but I'll never be able to read "Snoo" without thinking of those Amazonians from Futurama.
