Yeah, on my good headphones the difference is quite noticeable

Re: tidal on Linux, if you use Arch there are a couple of options in the AUR. I don't know about other distros.

linux as a non supported web browser

I'm confused about this one, lol. I did not know that Linux was a browser rofl

I'll bash them if and when they'll start to do shitty stuff. For now they are great

They have recently changed that. Lossless is now part of the basic plan

Friendly reminder that Tidal costs the same, has a bigger catalog, does not pester you with podcasts, has lossless quality audio and it includes lyrics

Tidal has recently eliminated its most expensive plan and bundled everything it offered into the cheaper tier. So it's actually the opposite of enshittification. I love it

You can also use their DNS server without having to install anything

OK I read the bandcamp thing and... It's not enshittification at all. Can we stop applying the term to every online service that kinda gets slightly worse for some reason or another?

Just in case:

Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. I call this enshittification

None of those things happened with Bandcamp

You're probably better off using dedicated websites for each site you need to download videos from.

They are usually ridden with ads, but it's not a problem if you use uBlock Origin or similar addons

Eugene of Mastodon has signed an NDA with Facebook.

Is this true? Where can I read more about it?

Copilot lists its sources. The problem is half of them are completely made up and if you click on the links they take you to the wrong pages

Sì diciamo che non è proprio un bel periodo per pubblicizzare queste cose lol

Però figata!
