Epic article from Mixmag. Adelaide’s always been a little shy to claim the title of being the birthplace for Aussie techno, but out of the alternatives it’s the easiest to verify. This article goes the full deep dive. A little local music pride. https://mixmag.net.au/feature/adelaides-claim-as-australias-historic-techno-capital #Techno #DanceMusic #EDM #ParkParty

Spotify playlists are so passé. Boycotting is HOT.

You asked for it, we’re delivering. Come along to Rewind on the 9th of May, 12pm-4pm for our CD Burning party! 🔥💿🔥

You bring the music, we’ll bring the burn! Bring a laptop and a set of headphones, we’ll help you download the perfect playlist for you (or your crush) and then burn it onto a CD! We’ll also have a craft station so you can design the perfect CD case.

We’ll have a CD only DJ setup, so if you have any tracks you wanna share, slip slop slap seek and slide that disk into our hands (Bring the cd).

CD’s are provided free of charge by DJS <3 But supplies are limited so BYO if you have one 👍

We're supporting @sage_southaus@adlsolarpunk.net to do undertake a particiaptory micro-grant funding round for local grassroots groups and initiatives that can offer projects to help address systemic and long term issues around wellbeing in our activist (and related) communities.

We're preparing to use an incredible open source tool called CoBudget but as we look over the code we can see that since COVID the project could do with a little love.

Are you or do you know any devs who could look over the project code and pass on their thoughts for improving the developer experience on the project.

The project needs to attract some new devs and we've often found making it easier to get involved and contribute can help attract new dev contributors.

#MastodonTips #GettingStarted When you’re new to Mastodon, we’d suggest the first step is to follow 50 account. It’s not a final destination, but a place to start so you’ll have stuff on your feed. Made it to 50? Good job! Follow more.. 2nd tip today is to start to find and follow hashtags for topics you care about. This helps diversify your feed. The task here is: Find and follow a few hashtags. Once you find a busy one; follow a bunch of folks that pop up. Follow 10 ppl this way!

#MastodonTips

Increase the spread of your posts with.. #HashTags

Big tech now ignores the humble HashTag through #algorithm control. On here you’re IN CONTROL

Couple tips:

1. For accessibility capitalise the first letter of each word (TitleCase). Then screen readers can read each word. Do this even if the suggested tag that pops up is all lower case.

2. Anyone can follow a tag and that’ll help those people find your post. As your post will show in their feed. Follow some HashTags yourself!
