The last few releases of Jerboa have been atrocious. It's currently crashing when backing out of activities, voting, or commenting. I tried Thunder but the UI is extremely confusing for me.

Another Podcast Addict user here. But I don't think they pay the Podcasters anything if that's your concern. If you're listening to Joe Rogan, don't pay him a penny. Pirate the shit out of his podcasts. But maybe you should consider giving to Patreon if you don't already. They take a cut but at least you know its going to the podcaster.

Also you really should know that Tidal isn't paying anyone any better, no platform is. They're all beholden to rights holders, and that is mostly record labels and their parent companies. No platform pays per stream, that's a myth. Spotify just distributes all the money left after their 30%. Blame the labels for making audio so unprofitable and for the average listener for treating music and podcasts as disposable,

Before you think I'm defending spotify, I'm not. They tried to make an unprofitable product profitable and they did it by selling out to record labels. Spotify could have made them irrelevant but chose not to.

It's the first meta joke this place has had. Someone asked how not to shit for 3 days and for some reason it made its way around the site.

Seems like we're all still redditors at heart after all lmao

Actually it's not as easy as yout make it sound.

If you Google "Lemmy" you get images of the guy from motorhead. I've even done site searches with specific instances and a lot don't show up at all. Beehaw, sh.it, and kbin.social were very difficult to find with Google.
