    Another podcast player I quite enjoy discovering new shows is Breaker: https://www.breaker.audio/ (though it can get a bit unstable at times…)

    I hope to see more open source online journals like https://distill.pub/ in the future. With hosting being so cheap (basically free for anything remotely open source), I really don…

    A beautiful sentiment :) I believe this should apply to tech as well – it shouldn't be an exclusive field and building logical apps should be simple. That's kind of why I chose to …

    That would be great – it's always good to have some competition ;) Regarding feature requests I'd love to see a well-maintained B2 Django Storage. I'm currently using an existing i…

    We maaaay have started talking about building an open events API on Reddit… :) https://www.reddit.com/r/MusicEventsHackers/comments/880nc3/...

    It's a shame you decline any apps with monetisation ideas. I think it would be better to offer a paid API service a la Google APIs than to have so many engineers reinvent the wheel…

    Thanks, yeah I posted it to different music subreddits, so I thought I should try and make it eye-catching :)

    Yeah, just wanted to ask if you use an API to get events? I've been working on something in a similar direction for Vienna. Tried to get SongKick API access, but they declined me. …
