The new Insta360 GO 2 would probably work really well for these type of videos:

Thanks for your comments, I very much appreciate the feedback!

1VIBE has it's own weekly newsletter but you had an interesting suggestion about allowing users to create their own newsletters from their own submissions. I think this is something to think about in the future when we gain a lot of users who are actively submitting.

We did want to mirror mixtapes on the main top streaming platforms but right now we really like Spotify and support what they are doing. If a lot of ppl start to complain about why our mixtape/playlist is not on "Apple Music" for example, then we will make it available there. Tbh streaming platforms further fragmented music/hip-hop so we are not always happy about having to duplicate everything we do on all platforms. It's like those ppl you see automating their Instagram posts all over Twitter.

r/HHH is a great community but as you said, a lot more spam than signal. Worldstar is legendary but there is a lot of questionable content on there. Def not the best representation of hip-hop industry/culture imo.

I have come across feed43 but have not tried to test it with some of the links im looking to create rss feeds for. At a quick glance, it didn't seem user friendly but if you vouch for it ill have to check it out.

I have heard this argument before. Personally i don't agree. If you are a content creator and your content is available for free online, is it not your goal to have the content shared as widely as possible?

A lot of tools/services we use today (eg: Google, Facebook, Reddit) were built without asking for permission. Reddit co-founder Alexis talked a lot about this in his book https://withouttheirpermission.com

Ask HN: How can I create an RSS feed for any website/url?

I've been using feedly.com to track websites and curate content for a newsletter. Certain websites that used to offer public RSS feeds no longer have them, two quick examples: https://genius.com/articles + https://daily.bandcamp.com/latest.Feedly says they are not in the business of creating RSS feeds, only plugging them into their reader.Im wondering if there are any good free/reasonably...

Ask HN: Are there any products for embedding group chats on websites?

Looking for a chat product to make a site feel like a meet-up spot for regular users. I'm surprised Facebook or Slack haven't done this yet. A good example of what i'm looking to achieve is https://keyframes.net. I did find this product https://sidecar.gitter.im however Gitter requires users to register/login using Twitter or Github which is a bad limitation.Im having a hard time deciding on...
