Read @vim's description. It's a Fediverse group. I'm trying to encourage people to use it :)

@sotolf@fosstodon.org
Nice. Care to send this to @vim ?

@Gargron
No.

That should be given a different word. "Censor" seems more appropriate, because you are locally censoring a person's existance from your timeline, not just the their posts.

Muting should strictly refer to the ignoring of one and only one's activities (primarily notes).

I generally use timelines for some reasons.

They're useful when you can't remember the name of something. You just kinda fumble through your history.

It's also nice to be able to jumps back "3 weeks", "9 months" or "4 years", etc. to see what you downloaded or listened to back then.

@rastinza
Maybe artist/album, if I have too many songs.

I'm a terminal user. Spreadsheets would work in a graphical setting, unless you meant some kind of plaintext format.

Music enjoyers: How do you sort your music files? What do you recommend?

Right now, for all music I download in 2022, I have:

music/2022/<artist>/<track_title>.ogg

But this has some issues. I want a general timeline of music by year of download, but then some songs by the same artist a separated into different years. Do I instead ditch the years thing and use/abuse the files' modified time stat? Do you have a different approach?

Metadata is data

Begs the question, what really is vision / imagination / the mind's eye?

I read somewhere that you only "see" things which are useful to you, both physically and mentally. Like a door handle, or a chair when you're tired, or a person's microexpressions when someone is important to you. Kinda like that "ape in the middle of a ball game" experiment.

What alternatives are you considering? pass?
