You have been fooled by Discord's misleading terminology. It's a centralized platform and what it calls "servers" are just groups (like subreddits).

I have a few more recommendations listed here (not just from India): https://blog.nileshtrivedi.com/music/recommendations
But seriously, there's such a huge variety of music in India. Film music gets the most attention, but there are so many gems, especially from artists who from Hindustani / Carnatic classical, film music, folk backgrounds where they have managed to avoid crass commercialization.

About to throw 5 USB chargers because nobody #repair these things anymore. As an #engineer, I find this extremely disgusting. 😡

Have you considered using more protections beyond robots.txt? For example, DDOS protection tools like Cloudflare that OpenAI uses for its own site?

Do you happen to know which one among these protects my code AND content (such as discussions on issues) from AI companies taking it (without consent) for training their models? GitHub owned by Microsoft which partially owns OpenAI is clearly not it.

Is there a free #Mastodon / #Akkoma / #gotosocial host that would let me create accounts in bulk and run some automated feeds through them without considering it abuse?

Has anyone built something like "Login with #Fediverse / #ActivityPub" as social login / oauth identity? #Mastodon perhaps?
