the list of genres when filtering songs are only genres of uploaded songs.

you are able to upload songs with reggae as the genre once you make an account. i see how that could be confusing.

yea didn't they just hike the api cost?

mhm thanks for pointing this out but i tried this format and it does not work with the api. it must be like this: https://open.spotify.com/track/0QDr66VdiCEuyDF33MAtlG?si=OIn...

i got the link by clicking the song in the app -> share -> copy link. not sure if the share extension is generating different links, different version or something.

mhmm i'll change it to be more public. thanks for the feedback
Re:Show HN: Loopy – share and find and music you love on Monday September 11, 2023 @06:17PM (#37474449)
thanks for the feedback. i agree and valid points but i have friends who have nearly identical music taste and sometimes i hate songs they play. so there is still a hit or miss factor.

then the question would be how to decrease the ratio between hits and misses? do you have any ideas of what you would like to see tackle this?

i have a few: - upvoting songs - organize songs by the plays / views it has from the source (youtube, spotify, soundcloud). - suggest songs that genre is the same as your favorite genre?

gotta effectively feature in the "I know you like xyz, you might enjoy that" factor

Hi,I created loopy, a website to share and discover music you love.A former coworker answered an ice breaker question saying his superpower would be to know every language fluently since he travels a lot.Mine would be to hear every song I would fall in love with.I realized that I will die without hearing every song that I will fall in love with. So many of my all-time favorite songs I randomly...
