If the plan for the fedivers is to associate with Meta, I will leave it in a heart beat.

I agree. My point was that it didn't "change music forever" lol.

I would agree that autotune might have kinda change music (although when used in a deliberately exaggerated way it doesn't sound much different from a vocoder), but to me Cher's song is just one of the pop hits that helped popularize the effect. IMO, it's just a very well-produced pop song, which contributed to the rise of a form of vocal processing that's very widespread today, which is already quite a lot. But it's not revolutionary in itself, it's very much in keeping with all the codes of pop music. For the records, I'm actually a teacher in audio engineering at a college and Univ so I've been quite interested in the over-popularity of this type of audio processing in recent decades.

Or maybe they just listened to the Sesame Street theme song from 1972? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMDCjA9_-tM Cause Vocoder and talk box were around way before Cher and her producers. Believe was just a big hit song, nothing innovative about it, Kraftwerk had been using that king of sound almost 30 years before she did.

This is great!! I use macOS for work but I'm sure I can get 90% of the work done on Linux now! Just wondering about GPU perfomance? Video editing is crazy fast on macOS, anyone tried on Asahi?

Agree. But I dont think she "change the music forever" with Believe, as she claims.

EDIT to add that talk box and vocoder were around in the 70s : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=En8uiRa8jPE

I hope so.

I almost got it to work on Nobara. It requires a lot of work but it can work with the right settings.

Meta cant be trusted. Ever.

AkA Chappo Trap House. I've never received so much hate from a community (expept on the_donald maybe). My crime? I think South Park is fun.

It is. For me, it shows we can easily have fun user-controlled social media. That's the key to take back the web. That's positive and makes me feel good. But unfortunately, the vast majority of people seem to not care at all about this. Of the dozens of people I spoke too about Lemmy, not a single one joined. I got a single friend to join Mastodon. I don't understand why so many people, organisation, media, that say they're "left leaning" cant stick to Musk's garbage X. Gotta be patient.

I know, but so far, it's still the best way to give money to the creators. It's basically 9:1 in favor of the artists when you buy an album.. Hopefully a fair alternative will come up in a near future. Funkwhale is slowly getting better . Anyway, anything is better than Spotify.
