Comment on How Bandcamp became the "headquarters" for video game soundtracks
Thassodar@sh.itjust.works 10 hours agoGonna jump in and say if you want to support a small artist, and fairly active Lemmy user, I’m on Bandcamp and just posted week one of a two week track-a-day competition:
www.thassodar.bandcamp.com
You can hear all the tracks so far here:

P. S. I’m only doing this because this is one of my most active times of the year!

y’all literally mention Bandcamp, but when someone posts that they’re on Bandcamp they get downvoted? Cool, thanks for the support!
People don’t like ad’s, even if it’s just you mentioning your thing in a context that makes sense. It’s always a slippery slope to reddit, meaning bots that try to sell you something when a post includes a similar keyword. Not to say that’s what you are doing

I don’t care, it sounds good, I’ll buy some of your stuff.

As the other posted said, it’s easy to see something like this and get the knee-jerk reaction of “stupid ads!”, especially in a place like fediverse where many people are overly sensitive towards such possibility (I know I am). I’m always curious about new stuff to listen to so I’ll make sure to check it out when I can.

To be honest: I was a little butthurt when I made the edit, any listening you do I appreciate! I should have mentioned in my comment you can listen for free on SoundCloud.

Completely understandable. Getting annoyed or defensive is a pretty natural reaction when people just downvote and move on, without articulating their reasons. I get why people did it but I also understand the frustration.
Current state of social media can be a pretty draining experience.
