Many, perhaps most, music services have towards the bottom of an artist page a list of similar artists that you can explore. Also, if you see what compilations a song, or an artist, is on you can see what else is on that collection.

Also, music services have collections for different styles of music. As you listen to those, if you like a song you can try to see if you like other songs from the same group / artist.

Don’t recall the brand. Threw the remaining ones out.

shitty bulbs.

+1 on that as a potential issue. Don’t recall the brand, but I had bought a pack of light bulbs where the whole pack was having issues, to the point I called an electrician to check. When the electrician came and saw the brand he told me “those are garbage” and that he had seen plenty of people having issues with that brand.

I threw those away, bought some other brand. The exact same places where I was having to replace light bulbs often no longer had any issues.

+1 on Restic

I think in general we just need more people… There are communities that exist in Lemmy which are basically empty / inactive that used to be active in Reddit (i.e. Datatabases, Postgresql, FreeBSD subreddits). Perhaps as more people discover Lemmy those smaller / niche communities will see more traffic.

No. Have not logged for weeks and can’t think of any good reason to go back.
