Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 23/05/2026firefox has been an absolute memory hog for me lately. as soon as i quit, my laptop becomes usable again. Isolated Web Co also seems to be the cause of this, but I don't know why. 070
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 22/05/2026It has completely rewired the way my brain processes songs I have heard and will hear a million times. I know how the songs *actually sound* but I *expect* the Girl Talk version, if that makes sense 0260

Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026If you don't know what to listen to and you're bored of your usual picks, ask a friend! Read a music blog! Listen to an independent radio station! Don't hand over your experience of a human art form to a fucking algorithm, be a human being and interact with someone. It has real meaning! 000
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026Playlist curation is an art. Sequencing songs is an art. Making a playlist for someone is an act of love and care, and it takes real thoughtfulness. We're losing it to a corporation that thinks it can aggregate a million people's tastes into "vibes" it can use to keep you on the platform longer. 000
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026Spotify seeks to turn music into mere content, not art. It's not just algorithmically generated playlists, but them deciding to inject things it *thinks* I'll like into a playlist I've already done the work of making myself. It's them prioritizing songs in shuffle based on what it thinks I'm feeling 100
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026There's also PRIDE in taking the time and effort to build a collection yourself that you just can't get by letting an algorithm do all the work. It's good to think critically about what you like and what you actually want to have, it's good to actually make a decision about your media consumption! 200
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026The active nature of collecting is a big draw for people. Even if it's just files on an iPod, there's pride in building a collection yourself. *You* did that, not some algo! Spotify is incredibly passive, and it's easy to not put any thought into your music at all. It makes music content, not art. 000
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026Also, I think it's a good thing to critically think about what you like, and put effort into building a collection. I don't want to have an algorithm decide what my taste is, I want to make the conscious effort to explore and expand what I have. Ask a friend for recs, read a blog, be ACTIVE about it 110
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 18/04/2026This is exactly it. I almost never play my physical media "traditionally", it's all ripped and uploaded to a server I run. It's not about nostalgia. Streaming is objectively convenient, but I don't want to be beholden to constantly changing terms and conditions, to "improvements" I can't opt out of. 100
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 02/04/2026Currently running Plasma for games/media consumption/tablet mode behavior and Sway for productivity. I'll have to check out niri, though, the layout looks ideal for me. 000
Taite @taitemc.bsky.social · 02/04/2026I've got an 2-in-1 with Arch and the touchscreen mode in Plasma is actually pretty great out of the box. I imagine the proprietary nature of the surface makes things a little funky at first, but I actually really like the form factor. I'm eyeing the Framework as my next upgrade. 100
