Using the podcasters to curate works to a degree. It works really well right now. But as this space scales up in terms of users, we will need more people curating music. The curation cant just come from a handful of podcasters because they simply cannot cover all tastes and genres. I think if people have the ability to chose their own algos or create custom ones, that makes things very powerful. Wot is a quick easy way to enable this. Just like you can plug in and connect to whatever relays you want, I have a vision for being able to choose your own algo engine in the same way. Power to the people should be the default. We should strive for solutions that put the choice of discovery algo in their hands.

There's been talks of using genre tags in the past but no one could come to an agreement on a list. @Sir Libre is building tagging into his app and those tags are what I'm going to use in the future since it's what we have. He added it and we like it so that's what we're using. Ideally the artist would add the tags so we can just find "metal" but we need a standard list or it won't go anywhere and SirLibre has that list started. You can even add your own as a users to help out. Love the "when this gets big" mindset but I've also been doing the PC 2.0 stuff for 5 years and the DeMu stuff for over 2 and it's very very very slow but we just need one new person at a time that gets it and they are out there. We need active participants right now since the tech at least on the 2.0 side is solid and battle tested and a great jumping off point. Lots of potential and we're entering a bull market it feels like with this stuff but this has all happened before over the past 3 years with music so we're a little jaded tbh so we need some POW from people all around. That's simply just listing to some new tracks in Fountain. @Mike Neumann has a Mikes Mix Tape music podcast that's 99.9% music and a collect of the hits over time so check it out and see what grabs your attention because you'd be surprised of the quality of music in the ValueVerse. *podcast link not posted so I don't lose this War and Peace (iykyk) post by switching apps. **edits/drafts that work would be nice so I could post or save this and add it later but I'm taking a walk and typing on my phone so this is it. #touchpuddles 🌧️
