so cool to see a mstdn post on Lemmy

So you’re posting to lemmy form mastodon … that’s awesome! (genuinely).

There are a few little formatting things you can do to make it work slightly better however …

You can see what your post looks like here: lemmy.ml/post/2253666

1. Treat the first line of the post as the heading (as that’s what lemmy does).
2. So keep it clean and avoid putting ats or hashtags in the first line as they’ll create links that make it look messy
3. Otherwise, make sure to keep the lemmy community as the first at-tag in the post (eg @ asklemmy @ lemmy.ml). Lemmy will only use the first one.
4. Besides that, you can at-tag anyone else you like and use hashtags, just as you have here, as much as you like.

If it’s at all helpful, here’s a quick demo of posting to lemmy from mastodon, with more posts in the thread to illustrate how it can all work together: https://hachyderm.io/users/maegul/statuses/110483509521476095

I have a 70 gig iTunes library and still use clickwheel iPods. Primarily in my car

For podcasts I use AntennaPod and quite like it. There are some issues with the auto fetching of new episodes though and I need to refresh it manually.

i use spotify, on my browser while i’m in the office and using spicetify while i’m home. on my phone i’ll use xmanager. i’ll use headphones if i’m in the office but my monitor’s or phone’s speakers at home. i listen to podcasts all the time, either that or video essays. my favourites are stuff on true crime and video games.

I use AntennaPod for podcast

I listen to music while working (home office) or when doing anything around the house.

I have a bigger sound set on my desk and two differently sized Bluetooth speakers for carrying around.

My primary source for music is actually twitch.tv. Many really good DJs there with live performance.

i listen to music on my drives to anywhere, and most of the day at work. i sometimes listen to podcasts near the end of my work day

I sometimes get to listen at work. I use AntennaPod but it’s queue system is garbage. I only use it for it’s RSS and local folder options (music folder in my podcast player).

• Music: Spotify
• Podcasts: Pocket Casts

Podcasts in the car to and from work, and while at work (WordPress Developer) with wireless earbuds. I listen to music when I’ve gotten through my feed of podcasts or when reading a book. Lofi and classical are both great for listening while reading, but while coding I prefer high energy music like math rock or metalcore/mathcore.

Some of my top recommended podcasts:

• The Last Podcast on the Left
• My Favorite Murder
• Dungeons & Daddies
• Buried Bones
• Hardcore History
• My Brother My Brother and Me
• Oh No Ross & Carrie
• Ologies
• Sawbones
• Search Engine
• Spooked
• The Wild

Music: I have a few CDs that are in need of a CD player and also have Jellyfin (no server, only local) to listen to my downloaded music on my TV (which mostly comes from Bandcamp). For my phone, I have the Bandcamp app, it’s basic but it does what I need from it.

Podcasts: via Podcast Addict on my phone (unfortunately no browser version, but that’s gotten less important with the years as I spend less time on my computer and the time I do spend requires enough focus that I don’t listen to podcasts), during sports sessions (podcast for warmup & cooldown, audiobook for the session itself), commutes, walking, cleaning & cooking.
