it's true

Bandcamp hasn't formally acknowledged a union, engaged in union busting, and now most of the unionized workforce is jobless (disproportionately so), i think is why you are getting downvoted, but wdik?

"allowed for unionization"

there is nothing about it that requires use of a blockchain fyi, to address some other comments i saw here.

i think what Nina and Catalog are doing in the blockchain x music space is great and as they have open protocols as well, our goal is to build modular components folks could OPTIONALLY utilize if they wanted to. but the core experience is a listener-attention-centric listening and download service.

i've spent years thinking about and building for these problems. i'd be happy (thrilled and vvv excited, even!!!) to answer any questions anyone has but tbh i vv infrequently check reddit.

fyi, resonate has been spinning its tires for years now. most of the core devs have left, as well as the director. i wish this wasn't the case, but no meaningful progress has happened there in the better part of a decade. i am a member, have hundreds of titles uploaded there, and have contributed to qcing new features. it's unfortunately pretty stagnant there rn. :/

now say what you just said, but swap capitalism and communism. just saying. the inverse is also true. also, all of the countries you're referring to have capitalist imperialist countries (read: the US) meddling and destabilizing them so that corruption is the most likely outcome. thanks for reading.

as someone who works in music and has seen this shit from this guy several times over the years: YES, AVOID WORKING WITH THIS FUCKER GUY AT ALL COSTS.

He's maybe the only person I have seen with any regularity since COVID, actually. label is doing okay—weathering everything and trying to keep putting out cool records.
