throwaway15968··on I like the RP2040
Completely agreed. ESP-IDF is incredible and the dev experience is miles beyond STM32 (my opinion).
throwaway15968··on Bandcamp support is faltering – maybe you should download your music now
As one of said engineers doing support right now, cut us some slack, we are doing our best :)
throwaway15968··on Bandcamp has been sold to Songtradr. What does this mean for the musicians?
Thank you for the response! That’s really helpful, makes it feel a little less vague & murky.

That means the world. <3

The rumour is that this happened without any Bandcamp staff aware, even executives, so it's different in that we're all in the dark.

Thank you!

I don't think so. Epic also spun off SuperAwesome today, who are not unionized.

Thank you, I appreciate it! A few quick questions:

1. How are benefits/compensation? Competitive?

2. Are there a lot of international remote employees at SongTradr? Bandcamp has a lot of people around the globe and we'd love to know if SongTradr is likely to make offers internationally or if it'll just be near offices.

3. Do you like working there?

Thank you, truly. It means a lot.

I'm international, so I'm not represented by the union, but I support them for exactly the same reasons that you state here.

I don't think it's related to the unionization. I'm sure it didn't help, but Epic also spun off SuperAwesome today.

Throwaway, but I work at Bandcamp. We're all very frightened and don't know what the future holds. We were told that some, but not all, will get offers from Songtradr and it may be up to a month before we receive an offer. It's pretty depressing.
