Delightful, thanks for taking the time to write it up.

TIL there’s matrix comic. Which one you recommend?

Elaborate with example pls

Youtube ? I get recommended to new artists all the time even when not watching a music video, but following showcase channel grants better results I think (Tiny Desk, Audiotree, First Take just to name a few)

I recently added tailscale.

How to set up Vaultwarden with tailscale ? Any pointer ?

I’ve been using VW for over a year but I’m double NAT’d so I set it up with CF Tunnel with my domain and while I’m confident in my master ps I would prefer TS.

Does the experiences contribute to you dropping out or is it unrelated?

This seems backward to me.

Since your example is media. Them relying less on ads means they would cater and align more with their patron. In my anecdotal experience creators with sustainable patron also tend to produce higher quality products.

As an aside I also follow Vox, or at least a few of their talent pool juggernauts like Johnny Harris, Phil Edwards, How Town (Adam Cole & Joss Fong), and Cleo Abram. Most also have Patreon I think.

Fully agree, I have masto/pixelfed client on my phone but Lemmy is the the one I used most by a long shot.

Idk why it is but on other platforms I feel like I’m intruding on someone else’s conversation, but I can freely reply here no problem (to some extent).

So which tech adjacent publishing you recommend?
Independent or otherwise.
