Second for Owncast. Pretty much the only thing I know of. Or maybe screen share in a shelf hosted Revolt server?? With permissions it should be pretty easy to set up a chat only room where the person streaming is the only one that can stream and speak.
Woah!! Never would have expected to see a post about this spot on Lemmy!! I know that area well! Such a beautiful part of the world!
I’m going to mention SLSKD if you’re at all into self hosting. I run that on a crap laptop at home, and can access it via wireguard/tailscale, then from my phone handle adding new downloads. This is borderline a required feature for me because I learn about a lot of music via word of mouth and being able to go grab it on the spot is great functionality.
If you liked this maybe check out Hi-Fi Rush. Very good third person fighting rhythm game.
Yeah! I think the Firefly example dialed it in for me. I know Star Wars also get called that, but both get sorted under “space western” in my mind, so I was never really clear on the exact use of space opera. Would things like Enders Game or even Dune technically count?? Like those are political dramas at a point. Enders game is maybe a bit simplified, but Dune has heavy character development with the backdrop of Arrakis and the technology required for survival.
Ah yes, Firefly, that does clarify the genre well. I’d say the series “technically” counts, but the writing style is definitely not for everyone.
I’m not super clear on what genre space opera is exactly, but The Locked Tomb trilogy might fit the bill??
Spotify’s payment model also adds a ton of bias to their suggestions. Artists need to hit a threshold number of listens a month to get paid at all, so Spotify ends up just suggesting music from artists they are already paying, rather than letting other folks hit that threshold. It’s also why the “shuffle” feature never actually shuffles a whole playlist before starting to repeat songs. If you really pay attention the songs that get repeated by the shuffle algorithm are the ones from bigger artists to try and keep smaller groups from getting paid at all.
Please let this be your sign to start ditching corporate platforms across the board. Enshitification will come for your pristine app experience eventually. Go spend your Spotify monthly bill on one album every month from bandcamp or something. Own your own media. Share it with friends. GET OFF CORPO AD PLATFORMS! I realize this is the fediverse, so people are already kind of on board, but I think music streaming is often given a pass, or sneaks by our focus when discussing these issues.
Came here to say the same thing.
Any chance we could get the dot files? This is really clean and I’d like to copy a few parts while I’m still on Hyprland. I’m hoping to more to Niri in the future, but I’m still tinkering with that on my system and would love something that looks this good in the interim.
Feeld is a half decent dating app for this, but I really hate suggesting a platform that still tries to rope you into a subscription by praying on insecurities around not getting many matches. But it seems like people are pretty open with what they are looking for, and it’s a pretty diverse platform.
