@welshpixie Hiya, back a few months, you very nicely accepted a commission to modify something you'd already produced. I didn't explain at the time, but it was some art for my son to take to University with him. It didn't go up in the first move to save damage, but it's just been delivered, and he's very happy with it!THANKYOU!Thought you might like to see it in situ.

Pleased to have finally got myself in gear and recorded some actual performance voice work! Just a couple of poems translated from Old English by Kevin Crossley-Holland, but they're done, and out in the world with publisher's permission secured.At the moment, they're #exclusive to the @radiofreefedi Word channel http://relay.radiofreefedi.net/listen/word/word.mp3I'll get a proper artist website up at some point and these will be part of my vocal reel.This is what community sounds like!#radioFreeFedi

Does anyone know of alternative web front ends (like nitter for xitter or invidious for youtube) that allows playlists from #Spotify to be played without directing people to Spotify?We've got a list of songs we'd like to share with newsletter readers that are all available on Spotify but are otherwise spread across various services. No way we could afford rights to them ourselves, but don't really want to push plays into Spotify.#AlternativeFrontEnds

Although I've had no response to this, I've worked out something like a solution. #Spotube got me the playlist locally, and it's #songlink facility meant I could go through each track and collate their availability across streaming and purchase providers.I managed to find all the tracks on #Deezer, so got an embedded playlist working through that service.Seems to be disagreement online about the relative levels of payment to artists, but at least it's allowing me to #BoycottSpotify

@_elena @AnimalSpirits And Cassandra was right. That was the point I think.

@_elena Fantastic - great work! Childcare while working is a challenge isn't it? We home-school our children up to year 11, so have a bit of flexibility (and occasionally ready access to cast members) but it's still difficult on occasion.Have a safe trip!

@_elena @mehdi_benadel I've just managed to share it as a reel (i.e. in the main grid). I downloaded from peertube, then just for fun, renamed the file in case they're doing a simple check on the filename.This was done on Firefox on a PC though, not on the phone app.

@welshpixie Voted cheap paid with materials. Two reasons:1) You'd provide known-good stuff.2) A small charge will help make sure people are serious about being there.

@nextcloud Locally hosted #nextcloud here. Server and storage are different devices. Server is a container, so is easy to recreate. Database is regularly dumped to another device. Storage is a RAID 1 NAS device with instant duplication to a connected USB drive. Then hourly syncs to an off-site cloud service.

@nextcloud I use all of these depending on where I am and what I'm doing. The "set-and-forget" nature of the desktop client does appeal most though.

My wife doesn't run a fediverse account, so I'm alerting anyone interested that her new book is part of the itch.io bundle collated to bring awareness of #ADHD in writing for #ADHDAwarenessMonth. There's a whole bunch of different genres included and they're all either written by an ADHD author, or have an ADHD significant character."The Players Act 1" is both.If you fancy $90 of ebooks for $25, please give it a look - all DRM-free.https://itch.io/b/3300/adhd-awareness-month-fiction@bookstodon #books #IndieAuthor

I know it's Amazon, and I know it's because there's a discount! However, it's really nice to have hit #1 in all three of the categories my wife chose to place "The Players Act 1" in. More importantly, she's knocked down the noted transphobe J.K.Rowling with a #LGBTQ positive, #NeuroDiverse #WorkingClass cast of characters.#DRMFree and available on #Kobo as well, we're keeping the price to 99p/c until 17th Oct if you fancy joining the troupe!https://lnkstk.swordandfiddle.co.uk/@players_1715@bookstodon #books
