@npub1sg6…f63m could you please ask someone to update Electron in Tidal.app?

Hey Jack. I’m more than happy to pay the new DJ pricing - Tidal is far more equitable to artists than the alternatives and I want to support - but nested folders is a must for serious library management.

Dropping out for a bit. On Mastodon.

It‘s almost as bad as people writing and sharing schizophrenic articles to lower people’s IQ and spread paranoia, but that’s more likely down to idiocy than malice.

Thanks. I really enjoyed the podcast. Good storytelling, although I don’t think the 3 options are correct.

Exactly the same for me. Have tried many other apps and no such issue. Even a delete and re-install doesn’t fix. Have since moved to Primal.

Based on what?
As much as everything else is closed, their web stuff gets more open and better support with each release. iOS 16.4 added push notifications for PWA, historically a major limiter and differentiator.
Check out http://wefwef.app for Lemmy, which is a web clone of Apollo for Reddit. It’s close to a 1:1 match and was built very quickly by one person.
Good web apps look to be a way forward. It’s strange how popular Electron is, yet few are embracing Ionic.

I think macOS is a good example, although the smaller user base makes it harder to compare.
That’s gone in the other direction, from open to closed.
Most users just use the App Store now. However, there are apps that don’t work well with the sandbox and they are free to sell directly to customers.
Then there’s third-party stores, but they don’t seem like huge markets.
And finally things like homebrew.
I think with iOS, there may be a big enough market and demand to see greater success in the third-party app stores.
Unfortunately, I think Apple will lock things down by region, have even nastier warnings, make things as awkward as possible within the letter (rather than spirit) of the law and maybe even drop customer support for any use who’s strayed from their walled garden (“void warranty, you’re on your own”).
It’s going to be difficult for them to navigate and they’ll make it as difficult for everyone else.

How do you like it so far?
With the sign-up, it seems there’s selection. Are kinda stuck to a server once you’ve made that choice (a la Mastadon), or is it somewhere between that and here, where you can move around more easily, but not quite the full freedom of Nostr?

Do you have a reputable source with evidential backing? That might be more helpful.

I absolutely love it. Feeling coherent now. I think purple 🤙 would be overkill actually, with the purple check and links. The yellow stands out more, but doesn’t feel out of place.
I’ve listened to the podcasts too, they really helped me understand your thinking better and its good to get the message out there, even if it slows things by a couple of days.

I absolutely love Tidal #[0]; moved over a few years ago and haven’t looked back. I DJ out with it often, it’s better for musicians financially *and* creatively.
I was so happy when folders were added, but the ability to **nest** folders would be a game changer; I have a huge collection and had it well organised on Spotify, but it’s been impossible to replicate.
P.S. Are the devs aware that the Apple Silicon version is still shipping with an Intel 64 TidalPlayer.app..? https://i.ibb.co/600nGyS/Screenshot-2023-01-03-at-20-16-55.png

I think you’re looking at implementing user-controlled account and keyword blocking, so I imagine lists could also contain both?

2023-01-03 18:47:01 UTC

- reply

Platform-side:
Yeah. Users will have their own block lists, but perhaps there could be subscribable block lists for known bad-faith accounts etc. The user can always turn on/off if they want to see that content anyway.
Content-side:
Ultimately that will be between the client (you), platform (in this case Apple), and the geographical consensus; I imagine it would pretty universally include porn, CSAM, and graphic violence.
Hopefully I’m jumping too far ahead and Jack’s suggestion of going back with user-blocking will suffice.
Failing that, there needs to be a way of fulfilling _“The developer must act on objectionable content reports within 24 hours by removing the content and ejecting the user who provided the offending content”._ without compromising the ideals of the network.

Apple (and to a lesser-extent Google) want to portray a family-friendly brand and like to keep what’s within their ecosystem clean. However, they don’t mind when “adult mode” is enabled via the web, so that’s how you get NSFW stuff activated on Reddit, Discord, Telegram etc. I know this seems bizarre when a web browser can access anything…
For example, I know images are blurred by default in Damus, but I suspect that won’t end up being enough (in Apple’s eyes) to prevent a child from seeing porn.
To expand on the above about subscribable lists, if there was a SFW block list enabled by default, but disable-able on the web, I could see Apple passing your app through review and it fulfilling that last requirement.
It would be a compromise for the default App Store experience, but would provide users with a method of getting everything if they so wish. I’m not saying it’s ideal, but I could see that being one possible way through.

Ah, okay - I noticed you talking about spammy relays a few days ago; what’s the difference between the way relays and users send spam?
From what I can understand, in both cases it would be on the user to handle i.e. disconnect from the relay (currently possible), or block the user (coming soon).
Would a user’s blocklist be transportable to another client and optionally sharable to other users?
It seems like subscribable / recommended block lists might be useful, just like you currently have Recommended Relays. I’m imagining something like Dan Pollock’s hosts file https://someonewhocares.org or community uBlock lists that are transparent and users could opt-into.
I think this is different to, but would compliment algorithmic choice.

My setup is entirely free.
WireGuard is a VPN protocol. You run the open source server somewhere on the network you want to get into and the client(s) on the devices you want to connect in using. You can do quite creative things with the config(s), but they pretty much mirror each other.
My IP is dynamic and I catch it using DuckDNS.

Might be out of the loop here, but why not setup WireGuard and cut out the middle-men? My WG tunnels work perfectly, it didn’t take long to figure out setup, and there’s no limits and/or cost.
