  • Lots of middle ground out there.

    Marantz, NAD, Cambridge Audio, and others all can put together great semi-audiophole systems. If a shop tries to upsell you on cables etc., judt tell them ‘you’re already covered.’

    Meanwhile, small speakers for under $500 have never sounded better.

    Or you can step up a notch and by used. I’ve got Rotel and Rega gear, which is way over-value.






  • Personally, I don’t support this retaliation.

    Lemmy is young. Some of the consequences of a federated and distributed social media are still falling out, and we would be better off if the mods and owners of different federated instances work together - actually communicate - to resolve these issues instead of shutting each other down in a cold war scenario.

    Federation NEEDS to happen and be (relatively) consistent in order for this great mess to work. “Hey, did you see that Lemmy post on motorcycles@lemmy.world?” “Nah man, I’m on a different instance than you - it must have been blocked by our mods.” That is NOT going to make a good experience for users, and they’ll give up very quickly.
