I play #bass, #guitar, and more.

Used to play in several bands, run sound, band scout, and promote shows. Planning on doing that all again some day in the not-too distant future.

Take a look into Podcasting 2.0 and the Value 4 Value model with Satoshis. You just described what this does. Lol. The only hurdle is the initial set up.

Chris Fisher, head of the Jupiter Broadcasting network is always talking about utilizing BTC based currency & the Lightning blockchain to pay for netcasts and potentially libre software!

I recommend using AntennaPod or Podverse.

Just ordered 100 metalhead.club patches.

  • Logo only (no text)
  • DIN-A7 = 105mm x 74mm
  • Black fabric, white logo

LOL

(no, you didn't miss the preorders. There was no preorder period. Regular orders will start asap. :) )

Unfortunately, I don't have the equipment, nor the space or money for it right now or I would print them! Lol

What I think might be cool, and super cheesy, would be jacket back patches.
Buy one and it comes with some kind of annual membership. Something like with the NYDM guys do. I don't think we can have virtual BBQs, though. ๐Ÿคฃ

I have not heard anything about any libre software doing anything with much technology, however.

That being said, I wouldn't mind having a computer help me with the final mastering of an album while I focus my time and energy on other things.

โ€œThere were opportunities for us to break into the Metallica league. But we never took advantage of themโ€: the story behind Testamentโ€™s debut album The Legacy, an overlooked thrash classic
Testament never scaled the heights of Metallica or Slayer, but their 1987 debut album The Legacy remains a thrash classic

So when are you gonna roll the metalhead.club Mastodon credentials over to create XMPP accounts for the entire server?

@thomas
Lol yeah, it is a bit of work. I know it's do-able with GNUsocial. They're both XML (and PHP) with some form of OpenID.

I think it'd be possible with Mastodon.
Maybe KeyCloak would be best. It was backed by Red Hat, now I think The Linux Foundation.
Provides identity management, SSO, LDAP, etc. Very comprehensive as far as I can tell. I haven't quite figured it out yet. ๐Ÿ˜…

In case your didn't know: The outer package bag and the inner bag are both made of grass paper, which means you can dispose them in your bio waste.

... And the outer bag is reusable: It has a second glue stripe, which allows you to seal it up a second time.

After we have metalhead.club shirts and stickers we are still missing... That's right, our own anthem.

The idea would be for members of our instance to write and record a metal song together. I'm confident that we have enough musicians here to get this off the ground.

I wrote to @thomas briefly and he thinks it's a good idea.

I suggest the hashtag .

@Aarkon

Would it be easier if we had a chatroom to discuss the details?

๐Ÿšจ You want metalhead.club stickers - you get them!

I've found another, more affordable supplier for stickers (thanks for pointing me to Flyeralarm!).

Let me know:

  • If you want to receive 1..50..n or more stickers

  • And let me know your name and address so I know where to send them.

Provide your info via email: shop@metalhead.club

Stickers are for free, but donations are welcome to cover shipping ๐Ÿ˜‰

I think this needs a just-large enough QR code. Check your software repository for an application to generate one if you need to.

Maybe in the corner with the URL next to it. Replace the other text with "fediverse social networking/microblogging" (and jabber server๐Ÿ˜œ). It says "metalhead" three times. Lol.

Nice!
I've sponsored netcasts to have the hosts read adverts for TFC. And gotten bloggers to write stuff and promote for us. I haven't gotten to physical media but, have a running list of magazines and stuff.

Actually, no we were supposed to sponsor a convention a few years ago but then the guy running it put it off for about a year and a half then stopped replying to my messages. ~$3k gone. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Metalhead.club currently loses about 6 % to 9 % active users per month.

Well, it's no surprise that users lose interest, especially if they registered during one of the user waves and just wanted to check out what this Mastodon or Fediverse thing is.

Nevertheless it's sometimes a bit sad to see the numbers drop ;)

But of course I'm still happy to host this place for you - even if it'd be just 100 users. ๐Ÿ˜‰

What MAU rate do you observe on your instances?

Um. Oh also. I ran a GNU Social node for a while.
Had >100 w/ basically no effort other than a cool name and theme. Only maybe 3 were at all active.

Then there was that little marketing agency that made several dozen posts for, like, weed & shrooms. ๐Ÿคฃ
I contacted the company and said thanks but, to chill out and spread the posts out to more like one per day so it isn't spammy. They weren't even aware ๐Ÿ˜– but said they'd contact their contractor about it.

I'll open it again eventually.
