I'm out there :)
I'm into Rock, Metal and Alt! Also many related music genres.
Interesting that you featured Poppy in this post. I covered her twice in the last year in my daily actifit posts. In fact one of those times was about this exact same song/video! https://peakd.com/hive-193552/@kenny-crane/actifit-kenny-crane-20240605t050146041z
The other time I was talking about how Poppy was a replacement singer for Titanic Sinclair's music projects when he dropped Mars Argo. https://peakd.com/hive-193552/@kenny-crane/actifit-kenny-crane-20240626t060114083z The song I used in this post is by Mars Argo and doesn't fit in Rock/Metal/Alt but she has done some of that in the past.
Anyway... Probably a third of my posts are about music. https://peakd.com/@kenny-crane/posts
But I vary the genre a lot, because although I love Metal, not every one does. So it would be cool if there was a Rock/Metal/Alt community on here, specifically for these types of music, where I could read others' posts and probably write some of my own!
Thanks for your feedback! I'm so glad to hear this and I've read some of your posts.
But I have to say something, I usually don't pay attention to the actifit posts because I thought they were just simple posts talking about running or similar. I find it strange to use them to talk about music, I don't get it 😅 I think the title of a post is really important to catch attention, especially here on Hive where we don't have a strong visual hook.
Also having many people posting actifit stuff talking about anything, there's still that "filtering" problem. How could I ever know if an actifit post contains something that I'm musically interested in?
Hive is not outside from the "catching people attention" rules we can find in the traditional medias.
But this is just how I see things here, maybe I'm wrong 😅
You're right about actifit posts! They are supposed to be about what you did to get your activity number and may also contain pics of things you saw as you got your activity. But I use an older phone for actifit and it doesn't allow pics to be added to posts anymore.
So I start my posts with video YouTube video reviews which I have been doing for almost 20 years now. I was an early adopter of YouTube and made a blog about it, which I switched over to here when I found it. The embedded video becomes my post's thumbnail. Then the end of my post is some words about my activity which is often very similar since I follow a fitness routine.
On here, there are different ways to find/filter what you want to see. I sometimes click on the #music tag which I use a lot, to see what others are writing about music. Or if I use a tag of a specific musician or band, I'll click that and see who else is writing about them.
A more specific music community also will help us see the kinds of posts we may want to see. Tag me if you get something going or just want to discuss further!
Sure I do! And I'll give more attention to your posts too 😊
