I appreciate the insight, but I’m not making the jump based on privacy. I have an issue involving my texts (seemingly at random) converting themselves to a broken url and erasing my message.

Oh hunny…I didn’t say an mp3 is CD quality, you assumed that. I gave specs for the FLAC because “standard mp3” has specs; therefore you have two sets of specs to compare, silly goose. I can hear a difference, but that’s because any studio engineer that is worth their money is going to be both.

Some of these are new to me, but I can vouch for Surge and Cardinal. There’s no reason to not use them.

I’m below 30, but I’m right there with ya. Even in my lifetime, I’ve seen enough stupid corporate shit.

I think everyone would be better off ignoring Reddit and its staff completely. We can build a better Reddit 2.0, and it wouldn’t even take a lot of effort. The last year or two of Reddit (from my perspective) was lackluster content from niche communities becoming unbearably toxic anyway.
