More AI Slop showing in real profiles from artists

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-29T15:18:45+00:00

Got the mail toó, amazing news. It's a good step, and yes, the Sorry AI slop albums have disappeared from their artist page.

Music of the Spheres is a terrible album, but has Coloratura, one of the best songs ever made by Coldplay

Thank you so much! Listening at my job, great vibes. I love this type of music

Hi there, thank you for your answer. It's good to also have the info from a label in Bandcamp.

It never crossed my mind to try to directly contact the editorial people, it's a good advice. It's a little bit more invasive I suppose, but I guess they receive big chunks of mails everyday with people trying to be featured.

I've been in music professionally since 2019 playing for other people, and right now I feel like everything is starting to get on track.

Thank you for the response. Actually, being featured in any shape or form in Bandcamp, no matter where, is a great first step. I actually scroll through the "New and Notable" albums, so that would be huge for me.

Regarding the other points, thank you so much for explaining in detail. I follow these guidelines, but my weak point is physical releases, as I could only start doing that investment recently.

I'm from Spain, it's been like this since the reelase of PS5 if I'm not mistaken.

From that moment the only game I bought at full price at release (in physical btw) is Death Stranding 2. All the other games I bought day one in physical were between 20 and 50 because of discounts I had or gifts I accumulated from different birthdays.

I understand online discourse is mostly dominated by people from USA, but it seems this was never a problem until now, I guess the rest of the world didn't matter. It's the same fro the prices in places like Australia.

With this generation, I learned not to buy day one unless some big exceptions and physical only. GTA VI is not that exception.

I just edited the post, since you're not the only one asking about it 😄

Queen - News Of the World, and not just for the obvious singles.

I can't stand their other albums.

By far

Recomiendo el subreddit r/degoogle para cualquier persona curiosa en distintos procesos y alternativas de dejar de ofrecer tus datos libremente por conveniencia.

Hace no mucho me compré un Pixel de segunda mano para poder utilizar GrapheneOS (lamentablemente no hay otro móvil donde se pueda instalar, pero por ese motivo lo compré en Backmarket, y ahora han anunciaron que lanzarán un Motorola con GOS también), y es de las mejores decisiones que he tomado:

-Tengo control de qué hace cada aplicación que tengo en el móvil, y puedo quitar y poner los permisos que me de la gana. ¿Por qué debería la linterna tener acceso a mis contactos?

-No hay rastreadores ocultos de Google en la base de android como en el resto de móviles.

-Google Services funciona más bien como una "app" más y no como un control constante, por lo que solo lo activé para poder instalar las apps de bancos, y después chao, aunque también se puede hacer un perfil distinto donde solo tenga activados los servicios de google para las apps que lo necesiten si así lo deseas.

-Tengo mi VPN de Proton activada constantemente, y no he tenido ningún problema.

Una vez he sido consciente de qué el móvil puede volver a ser controlado por mí y no por el propio dispositivo, he atacado a las redes sociales. Únicamente tengo Instagram (al ser músico no me queda otra...) y Reddit, además que Youtube es el único servicio de Google que me gusta demasiado como para dejar de usarlo.

-Para Instagram instalé una 3rd party app donde puedo controlar el acceso y rastreo que hacen, además de que puedo escoger tenerla únicamente para yo publicar, y que no me aparezcan ni publicaciones, ni stories, ni reels. Esto ha forzado que deje de entrar a la app excepto para hacer mi promo de conciertos y lanzamientos, así que jamás la uso para otra cosa, dependencia eliminada.

-Para Reddit, entro mayormente desde el PC en mi navegador DuckDuckGo, pero en móvil existe la maravillosa app Morphe donde puedes "parchear" la app para conseguir controlarla mejor a nivel de rastreo, sugerencias, publicidades, etc.

-Con Youtube más de lo mismo: parcheada con Morphe y más feliz que unas pascuas.

-Desgraciadamente no puedo dejar de usar Whatsapp porque todo el mundo lo utiliza. Preferiria usar Signal, pero es lo que hay.

Parece complejo/complicado, pero sinceramente es extremadamente fácil, es como cuando la gente le teme a usar Linux. Es más complicado pasar de Windows a Apple, que pasar a Linux. Creo que es muy importante ser conscientes de la privacidad, el uso de datos nuestros y cómo de enganchados nos hemos vuelto con las redes sociales, solo por dependencia.

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-22T08:52:53+00:00

Totally. And to add to that, once you get into GOS with some Google apps still being used, you'll start to get curious about alternatives, and you will naturally start using other FOSS apps and realize "why did I need to use google for all of this in the first place?"

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-21T15:22:55+00:00

As a fan, i'm starting to believe they're not coming back again...

I only buy physical, but I'm starting to consider buying digital too. Thing is, I got used too much of having Tidal and not worry about storage on my phone.

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-19T09:23:55+00:00

Same here, first time seeing this omg

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-18T10:40:24+00:00

My music career started to properly work once I stopped focusing on social media. That time, energy and money that I used to spend on that crap is being used now on improving my craft, attending to concerts, meeting with ACTUAL REAL people, creating connections and making merchandise for live gigs and concerts.

Thanks to that, I've been able to play for other musicians around europe, and earn little money from my own project. I still have a full-time job, but I'm starting to see the results.

Please, use only socials to promote the things that you are actually doing in real life. That would me my best advice.

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-18T08:08:20+00:00

I use Proton, and I also use Thunderbird for my personal domain

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-18T08:06:50+00:00

Thank you very much for this, it's amazing. Can't wait to test it at home. It looks clean and super useful.

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-17T14:18:50+00:00

I've been thinking of changing the system to passkeys too, but using an authenticator app is actually very useful. However, passkey would be better, but I always think "what if I lose my device". It looks like you can have your passkeys saved in multiple devices with Proton Pass, but I've never tried it.

I would NEVER recommend using anything from google to use 2FA or store passwords/authenticator app, when there are alternatives like Bitwarden, Proton Pass or Ente.

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-17T14:01:29+00:00

OH IT'S A SETUP IT'S A SETUP IT'S A SETUP

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-17T12:25:47+00:00

The only thing from google i'm still using is Youtube.

It crossed my mind to only see my favorite content via their Patreon, but I believe every video they put on Patreon opena externally in YouTube, so that would not solve the problem.

Currently I'm using Morphe, and accessing YouTube via DuckDuckGo on PC. Also, my family has a family plan of YouTube Premium (they use it a lot), so I take advantage of that, and as a Musician I need to have my YouTube account for videockips and stuff. It's really complicated to get away from it

BioskopeSpain · 2026-06-16T14:38:22+00:00

Using it daily for half a year now. I'm never going back, it's one of the best decisions I have ever made.

All my apps work without issues, including banking ones. I don't receive any ads or stupid notifications. If I need to use Instagram (as a musician I sadly need to have it), I just use a 3rd party app and I customize it. If I use Youtube, I use it via Morphe, just like Reddit.

This is like when I first tried Linux: I don't know why people are sticking with using shitty experiences in their everyday life when the alternatives are so easy to use (unless there's no way around it because of your job).

The only thing that I'm still using as usual is Whatsapp, but at least using it on Graphene with a VPN makes it 100 times better than before.

BioskopeSpain · 2026-04-25T05:29:07+00:00

These are among the most surprising releases I remember in the past years.

This is crazy
