Another Twitter Refugee
I play in at least four different music acts. I say "at least" because that number fluctuates. I play guitar and sing lead.
I currently have two favorite guitars:
1) Black Fender Custom Shop 1962 Stratocaster
2) Bayard Guitars Custom-built Flame-maple Tele

I wish I had a news filter that would remove all news stories based on what someone has said on Twitter. It’s lazy, cheap news that amplifies bad information while adding nothing to the conversation.
The Google App is littered with these types of stories. I guess you get what you pay for from free news.
@gruber There needs to be one page where I can see all Family Subscriptions. And, an easy way to consolidate all subscriptions to one Apple ID.
There's a dark financial incentive for Apple to keep this so opaque. There needs to be a better way ... this is very un-Apple-y. This seems more like a Microsoft way of doing things.
@gruber Managing Subscriptions on the Mac if you have a legacy iTunes account and an Apple id is frustrating at best or dangerously misleading at worse. It is easy to double subscribe to a service using both accounts.
On the iPhone, you have to logout of one account and login back in to the other account in Media & Purchases to see your subscriptions.
On the Mac, who knows how you see what is subscribed where.
Don’t let the gatekeepers of any genre keep you from playing… Your take on “their music“ is probably way more interesting anyway.
I’ve met very few gatekeepers who are actually that great at music… The true artists I’ve played with have been welcoming and open.
If you like a genre and you want to play it jump in and do it.
This is Rick Rubin’s thoughts on the matter. I agree.

In addition to music gear news, I also keep up with tech news ...
In both worlds, but ESPECIALLY tech I’d love to have a filter for all my feeds that removes revenue news about the different companies. I could not care any less than I do about tiny blips in revenue from last quarter. zzzzzzzzzz
These are fun toys ... The boring corporate concerns of the boring corporati are exceedingly boring. …boring
Tech coverage in the 90's through the early 2000's was so much fun. It's way less fun now.
There are universal laws.
