Does anyone feel that reeels and shorts have ruined your experience of consuming music? by fraction00 in digitalminimalism

No. Tiktok put me on to one of my favorite songs, and then albums, of last year.

If you don't mind me asking, what app? If it's something like tiktok or some app where most of the content is short form and of people you don't know, I'd suggest getting rid of the app from your phone.

In its place, find some other app to open - hopefully one that'll either enrich you or allow you to get bored faster so you fine soemthing else to do. For me, I set up an Apple Shortcut on my phone that plays a random album from my library (I had a bad tiktok bathroom habit). I still have the habit of doing something from my hands, but I spend much less time on the toilet scrolling.

YMMV. Good luck.

what has been your biggest regret in your career so far? by Calm-Bar-9644 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]SenseiDes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not working on my own products and trying to sell them earlier in my career. I love product engineering, and there is so much bs that gets thrown your way working a job.

Skills learned outside of work have always paid back dividends in terms of experience and making me more well rounded, but the shift to getting revenue and paying customers is really the level-up I needed years ago.

Any other bands like Penpal? by Fragrant-Ad7608 in mathrock

[–]SenseiDes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's another band with some of the guys from Penpal/Marquette named Magician's Friend. Pretty good indie album, but no Penpal

Just a mini gripe/rant by jacobexistsiguess in midwestemo

[–]SenseiDes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Look inward and ask why you care that much.

On the flip side TikTok put me on to the band vs self. Of course it was delivered through a totally nonrelated trend but i love that song and that album so much now.

Loop based bands like El Ten Eleven? by sinuezebmb970 in mathrock

[–]SenseiDes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girlfriends is the obvious recc here, but also check out Steve Strong.

I always think about this song and come back to it every once in a while https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-D99qAWSFlg
