Hey Ladies and Gentlemen! This should be a @CryptoradioFM article, but it gets a bit deeper and more personal, so I write it with my personal account. Cryptoradio.FM is around since 2019, and for the first 2,5 years, it was a registered radio station in Switzerland, under my name, paying licenses for the tracks that have been played. I was always fully doxxed within my projects, and that's also the reason, why the Cryptoradio.FM project moves at the speed it actually moves: Steady, but definitely slow.
The reason for this is, that every step I move forward, has legal consequences. Till now, there is no real way to launch a project centralised, and then give it over to decentralisation. But there are potential approaches, which I have to go alone - Since everything I do, will fall back on me. We already are streaming full albums, being a part of the radio station terms. But as long I don't charge any money, and as long all the tracks are on Cryptoradio.FM are "license-free", so it will work out.
And so there is the issue, that Cryptoradio.FM moves forward as far as I'm moving. Plus, I'm diving into development, as a Sysops, with Cryptoradio.FM being my first real project I'm building up from A to Z. And this decision stays because it's the way to go for my personal self, to move on to learning development. Today it's easier than it ever was since ChatGPT helps a lot, especially in the fields of programming languages.
Now I'm fully in a transition. In my personal behaviour, I'm changing my drug addiction. Caffeine and nicotine are the worst and are the hardest to quit. Everything else, aka. weed, just worked out fine. I can just not smoke, without being a bitch. With nicotine and caffeine, the story is completely different. So I'm bitching through this also. My nearly 42 years also tell me to slow down - And so I sometimes do, which was unbelievable a few months ago. I've also lost 20 KG in the last two years, which I'm super happy about. I feel so much better.
I'm also changing my location. From the german speaking part of Switzerland, I move to the Italian-speaking region. Which had already positive effects, even if actually the struggles are much higher. As an example, I had to stop the @vimm 24/7 stream while I'm moving, because the temporary house I'm allowed to live in, is falling apart. Sometimes I have electricity. Sometimes I have an internet connection. Sometimes there is a heater working, but most of the time I need to get wood (without a car), to fire up.
And once, I was even sitting on the toilet, and the beautiful shower behind the glass then exploded with shit, as I flushed my daily food outcome. That was shit. But always fun. I mean, who can tell such stories? Especially living in Switzerland? Well, I and my aunt @tatj can 😂
And between these struggles, I somehow managed, running around, and fixing issues, to keep the radio station online and @ravenmus1c's Streaming Café enjoyable for everyone. With all the issues, there is one priority I always manage to get behind, and that's Cryptoradio.FM - And so it's clear, which priority this project has in my life: I even managed to stream a Shrimp Farm in those conditions, which was a pain, but worked for almost 4 days. They will return next week, as I'm again over there, in search of an apartment, while running my day job in the home office.
Also I, as a person, received a bit of priority. After finally 41 years, I also take care a bit of myself. That's fantastic. At times, when nothing works, I just have time for myself. This then escalates into me trying to play around with an accordion, as an example. But I do it. And it's fun. And it's time just invested for me. I love it. I love myself. Again.
And now, back in the German-speaking part, in which all the struggles and issues are present, mostly family driven - I also find the time for myself. Last weekend I was so destroyed, my body told me "Hey, dude! Calm down!", and so I did. I just played Train Life on my Nintendo Switch, on my couch, cuddling with my girlfriend. Was great, except the game works worse than a Hive outpost. Ups...
Speaking from the Hive outpost - The Sloth.Buzz community is still the most important for me. Even if in the meantime I don't even know all the members over there. But this is because of a real-life fact: You rather develop stuff, or you're trapped with chats. And that's one of the main issues I have, as soon I begin to chat, I chat. And do nothing else. I don't do content. I just chat. And that's not the way to go for me, to complete tasks. So I had to step back and get the real-life stuff done. But still, with @slothlydoesit from Sloth.Buzz we have a year-long partnership going on. We always work together, and talk strategic directions. We were a good team back in time, as we worked with @dappstats. But over there, there was some sort of income, which we don't have right now, and makes everything more difficult. We're actually figuring out, how we can implement some sort of income stream - Or if we should ask the Hive community for support: But for this case, we need to dive deep into the topic and do a proper proposal. If you guys have a few ideas, just throw them at us. There must be a way to monetize the fantastic content @slothlydoesit is throwing at us on a daily base. One way can be to join the TOP20 validators. Would help a lot. But it's also many votes we need over there. I'm spinning around an idea. Let's see if I can tell you something about the next time I will throw a piece of content at you. In the meantime: Did we get your vote on our server? Here: https://peakd.com/me/witnesses - Vote for Sloth.Buzz!
Oh, that was a lot 😅 Thanks for your time 😘
Great post Bo! Hopefully, things fall into place and we can continue to move forward! There's always something in Life that gets in the way of an easy crypto life! One sloth at a time!
It is falling into place ❤️ I even manage to get more time to work on our stuff 🔥 And everything, even if hard, is actually somehow fun... 😂🥸🤷♂️ I’m in fear with the changes, but I always loved them, and this one especially ❤️😉 Oh, and the sloth.buzz development is not falling behind - It will have stuff implemented before crfm: But it’s not built from A to Z from me 🫡
Thanks for constantly running CRFM! Although you have so much struggle. I appreciate it alot! I wish you all the best for this year and that everything will get easier! !PIZZA !HUG
