#bandwagon — Public Fediverse posts

We're still on our summer break, but we have some important news for you: You can now find our music on all the big streaming platforms. 🎉

And because the big commercial plattforms actually suck, you can also find us on free and non-commercial alternatives like Mirlo and Bandwagon.fm. 🥳 Did we miss anything?

I'm excited to share my progress on the new "Conversations" app for #Emissary. If you've been watching the SWF end-to-end encrypted (#E2EE) messaging project this should look familiar.

But the Conversations app can also send regular, unencrypted "direct messages" too. Here's an exchange with a Mastodon server.

Wagoneers on #Bandwagon will be some of the first to try this out - though I'm probably not activating E2EE on Bandwagon.

I'm hoping this enables many new kinds of apps on Emissary.

I'm so excited for this next year on the #Fediverse.

And the more I learn, the more I think #BridgyFed is going to become a foundational part of our network.

I just posted my first messages from #Emissary across Bridgy to my account on BlueSky.

I still have some things to fix (on my end, not theirs) but it worked.

IT WORKED.

NGL, I feel a little like Morpheus right now. And just think of what it will mean for every account set up on #Bandwagon...

(2/2)

If not, what features could the developers of @funkwhale and BandWagon (@benpate) add that would allow accounts on their software to be used for release and show announcements, so you wouldn't need a second account on a micro-posting service for that?

A quotation from Victor Hugo

We might have understood and admired in him protest in the name of legality and liberty, proud opposition, legitimate but perilous resistance to the all-powerful Napoleon. But what pleases us in the treatment of those on their way up is less pleasing in the treatment of those on their way down. We approve of fighting only so long as there is danger, and in any case only those who fought in the first instance have the right to be exterminators at the last. He who has not been a persistent opponent in times of prosperity should remain silent when the downfall comes. Challenging success gives the only legitimacy to prosecuting failure.
 
[Nous eussions compris et admiré la protestation au nom du droit et de la liberté, l’opposition fière, la résistance périlleuse et juste à Napoléon tout-puissant. Mais ce qui nous plaît vis-à-vis de ceux qui montent nous plaît moins vis-à-vis de ceux qui tombent. Nous n’aimons le combat que tant qu’il y a du danger ; et, dans tous les cas, les combattants de la première heure ont seuls le droit d’être les exterminateurs de la dernière. Qui n’a pas été accusateur opiniâtre pendant la prospérité doit se taire devant l’écroulement. Le dénonciateur du succès est le seul légitime justicier de la chute.]

Victor Hugo (1802-1885) French writer
Les Misérables, Part 1 “Fantine,” Book 1 “An Upright Man,” ch. 11 (1.1.11) (1862) [tr. Donougher (2013)]

I've been really enjoying some episodes of the podcast for Lorenzo's Music. As a band they're champions of CC licensing and Free Code audio production tools, and recently they've done a number of interviews about community-hosted music platforms, fediverse projects and platform cooperatives.
