Someone found a new cozy spot!

"Aren't you done tooting about your #Fedivision2025 song yet?"

"Not when it's #Caturday!"

Here's my #unofFicial track for the

#FediVision2025 #song #contest

You can make yours about whatever you want but mine was recorded last year at #opo (The Old Post Office Library in #cambridge #ontario) and is mainly about making every day #caturday or #sundog

Feel free to post your song whenever you feel ready.

You can fave, boost & pin yours too for reach.
Be a Hashimoto and bring or create your own #tags.

Most favourited with #fv25 hashtag before 11:11pm est on #thursDeath May 1st wins (in my #unoFishial books! )

Anyone who wants to tally for another date feel free.

Reply to any song to review: Wife Liz says my song is "pretty good, for a 5year old"

Some of you have been asking about the #Fedivision song contest, and whether it will run this year.

#Fedivision2025 will not be run.

The organizers (@TQ, @zatnosk, and me) agree that the Fediverse has grown to a size where Fedivision doesn’t work as a format any more. We have so many talented amateur musicians here that it’s not practical for voters to commit the hours of time needed to listen to all the entries. The labour required to organize the event has also scaled past the point where we can do it in our spare time.

I wrote a blog post about the challenges of operating an event on the Fediverse, it’s about a 15 minute read. Please read it to the end if you’re tempted to offer advice or want to take it over. https://www.icemoonprison.com/blog/archives/863

I think I have a funny idea for what I'm gonna submit for #Fedivision2025 — a more surreal sequel of my #Fedivision2024 entry "Webpunks" that continues where it left off after it was interrupted by a "sound paywall" of SuperUltraProMiumGold+ to continue listening.

Not a lot of plans yet (or even if I'll go with that idea), but it'll have even more references to our enshittified internet I didn't cover in the original Webpunks:

While my song fell short of a top-10 finish, I want to congratulate all the participants in #fedivision2024, especially champion @keefmarshall and all the runners-up. That was fun...already looking forward to #fedivision2025

A fedi tip:
To anyone who just learned about the existence of fedivision, who feels they missed out: follow the official accounts of @announce @vote and turn on notifications for them, as well as follow the hashtags of #fedivision and #fedivision2025. You can also put them on a separate list, so they do not get lost in your feeds. That way you will most likely not miss any important updates next year.

Congratulations to the #Fedivision2024 Top 10!! So much musical talent here on the Fediverse. Looking forward to #Fedivision2025 #Fedivision

My prediction:

#Fedivision2025 will have at least 100 entries
