@jesse noticed this instance is still here and running, did you find someone to take it over and keep it open?

@RyanHyde @strayhorse Truth. And so little agreement about what constitutes any of them, lol

@NigelTufnel @GuitarSith @RyanHyde If you go into settings, then go to import/export, look for "Follows" and there's a link that says "CSV" and click that, it'll download your follows to a file which you then import into settings on your new instance. I signed up on musicians.today

@GuitarSith @RyanHyde Just used IceCubes to check out the local feeds of the other music-themed instances: musicians.today, metalhead.club, musicians.social, and one other. The first two look the most promising in terms of music content being posted and talked about.

@NigelTufnel Lmao real!

@NigelTufnel We need an instance for effects pedals junkies, lol!

@NigelTufnel Thought about musicians.social (I think that's the name) but metalhead.club is a possibility as well. I need to go look at the Mastodon instance directory and see what's there

Since Guitar.rodeo is going to be closing down in February, where's everyone headed? #gearsquad #guitar

Help!!! My wife won’t stop playing the soundtrack to Wicked 🙉 Don’t get me wrong it was a great movie but after the 5th time all the way through , I’ve had my fill 😖

Ordered the Boss DD-8 and supposed to arrive next Thursday but we're supposed to get a big snowstorm Monday (half a foot from what I've heard) then temperatures stay below freezing all week so my delay pedal is probably going to end up.....delayed. 😒

I have a New Year’s Eve surprise for you. 🖤⚡️ Narrow Escape, my debut album, is now available for stream and purchase on Bandcamp!

https://ambergrey.bandcamp.com/album/narrow-escape is the direct link!

Please have a listen, share, let me know what you think! And best wishes for your health, happiness, and success in the New Year! #album #SingerSongwriter #music #musician #singer #calm #ChillMusic #AmberGrey #WomanMusician #BedroomIndie #indie #guitar #vocals

@ambergrey just listened to your album on Bandcamp...fantastic! Gives me Kasey Musgrave vibes! Very soothing and cozy. Great guitar work as well!

About to order a Boss DD-8 digital delay and noticed that there's a "carryover" switch on the back...is this the same thing as switches on other delay/reverb pedals where when it's on, the effect tails off even when the pedal is turned off? #guitar #gearsquad

Had my sights set on a JHS FlightDelay pedal but some YouTubing made me realize that same pedal (more or less) can be had from BOSS (the DD-8) for easily under $200. Good to remember more $ doesn't always get you more features or better quality. Nothing against JHS, I love their content but in this case Boss is the better value.

Seas of Years is some damn good post rock. 🎸 Check out their album The Ever Shifting Fields 😮

An ambient album I regularly return to is Mount Carmel by Michael Grigoni. Ambient guitar at its best. Sparse playing, melodic phrasing, the use of loopers, and the use of pedal steel are all just wonderfully mixed together. 🎧

@CrowsLabyrinth As a huge ambient fan I definitely need to check this out!

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, and wishing those who don't, a very pleasant day with those you love, doing whatever brings you joy!

All I want for Christmas is Walrus Audio Lore 🎶

Looking to ditch Spotify since they just keep doubling down on their theft from artists. Thoughts on a suitable replacement? I'm excluding Bandcamp because I find the site and the mobile app clunky and a pain for quickly finding new artists/bands. If they overhauled their UX I would give it another chance. So, among the "less bad" compared to Spotify:
