In the case of this community, it’s for music that was originally created before 1950. Modern performances are allowed.

For all music that was created prior to 1950 (so you can imagine it will mostly be classical).

These separate communities already existed. These are more than what is being replaced, but since I made them I expanded the scope to include all decades that I am interested in. It’s not about traffic, it’s about letting people subscribe to their preference.

A handful of the decade-based music communities on lemmy.world have been closed by their moderator @ptz@dubvee.org.

Sadly, the reason for this is because PTZ is also known as Admiral Patrick, the creator of the Tesseract Lemmy frontend that was just the center of a great deal of controversy for being found to have a stealth ban list of instances, communities, and users that he did not personally agree with. These bans are forced onto everyone who uses Tesseract, without their knowledge and cannot be turned off. In retaliation for being called out, a lot of the music communities here on lemmy.world were locked and labeled [closed].

In retaliation to that childish spite, I have launched my own music communities on lemmy.today:

You have my word that I will not arbitrarily lock these communities. :)

Have fun!

This is the original studio version, sung by Hank Ballard. Chubby Checker would re-record it with his own vocals for his album.
