I disagree with his choice to not name the place. Fot starters, I would like to know where not to go eat. Also, those people shaming him will basically get no consequence out of their hateful behaviour, so they will not learn. Loss of revenue would have been a great way to drive the point home.

7Digital and Bandcamp are my go to when I need music in flac. I’m concerned to have all those eggs in the same basket… I hope there are still other stores I can diversify to (excluding Apple and Amazon).

Matrix.org is overkill for my needs, but at least notifications work accross the board 👍
