        Not a fan of that less contrast approach. It looks sun bleached

      Well yeah it’s a “good” website because it has absolutely no aspirations. Might as well have handed me a sheet of paper. I could draw a perfect picture if I set out to draw a stick figure.

      I love how you can adjust the volume of individual noises. Thanks for sharing!

      As someone with ADHD this is the only way I can get coding done. I put on usually 3 to 4 noises, at least one of them musical, and set them to a standard slider animation. Duduk Song and the Japanese Oase are two particular favourites, and the vocal generators are all pretty amazing. Oh! And the tuned cave droplets.

      I find also it doesn’t tend to become its own distraction. Once I find a group of sounds, the only way to experience them is to put them in the background and let them go while I do other things, so it actually helps me get started.

      Donating was a very good use of a few dollars.

      Thanks for that. I’ll be using that as background noise when I read.

    This video slaps. We may never replicate this phenomenon, but trying to understand why is very exciting.

      I think we will, I’ve been pretty happy so far with the lemmy community not putting up with the Nazis. (Defederating from lemmygrad was a fantastic move, for example.)
