@self @dgerard Their selling point being a "personal touch" from a *not-person* is too ironic for this reality.

I've been thinking a bit about [this post](https://nerdica.net/objects/a85d7459-1065-6c96-1e39-358946147055) regarding [#Mastodon](https://kbin.social/tag/Mastodon)'s responsibility to be compatible w in c/fediverse@kbin.social

I found an outlet for my news sharing habit.

I have a question for you all. What is your favorite cover or covers? No, I’m not talking about where we have another band singing the exact same song. What songs have you heard that were taken by an in c/music@kbin.social
