Rules

1. No bigotry

This includes queerphobia, racism, sexism, ableism etc.

2. Be Kind

Try to be friendly as possible. If that person you believe is breaking the rule or just being rude, please report them and we will handle it.

3. No Generation-Bashing/Superiority

Anything that says a specific generation is better or bad is not welcome. It's a weird thing to be elitist about anyway.

4. No schadenfreude

Schadenfreude means taking happiness from the misfortune of people. People who are bigots or a total asshole also counts.

5. No NSFW subject/post

Anything sexual in nature, gore is off-limits.

They told me student interest in college radio has dramatically increased in recent years. Stations that once struggled to fill airtime are now turning people away, shortening shows, alternating time slots, and running training programs just to keep up with the demand from aspiring student DJs.

“I’m 21. I grew up in the age of algorithms. The way music is right now scares me because of the rise of AI. Not even AI made music (I hate it) but even just ‘Daily Mix, 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5.’ It’s not made by someone. It’s made by an algorithm. I wish more of that stuff was person curated.”—Mari McLaughlin, WHRW (Binghamton)

This really spoke to me. I feel like a product with the algorithm suggestion which even on Spotify, it's so hit and miss. It feels like it suggest me to listen to an aleardy popular music or music that's optimise to be used on a TikTok video.
