As much as I love the fishies and music, and other people love to just tune into them like a radio while coding and doing other things, it is starting to get confusing for people who are regulars to the rwxrob.tv stream.
For example, people turn off notifications completely because they get notified and I’m not here. That can be annoying even if I setup a better system of live mode notification on Discord. I don’t want to force people to use Discord to get notifications, but if they want more precise notifications setting them up on Discord is the easiest way for most people. The priority is creating meaningful notifications.
The fishies and music will still be a part of rwxrob.tv, just when I take a break that is under 30 minutes. In fact, I’m going to commit to stopping the stream whenever I am away for more than 30 minutes, period. I will still be streaming relatively boring stuff, like just a screen full of coding with music in the background, but there won’t be any more “away” streams (even though I will still send the notification).
Eventually, I’ll give the fishies their own channel and download all the music from my favorite playlists and create a shoutcast radio station out of it as well. Then I’ll just setup a raspberry pi to stream it 24 x 7 on the appropriate Aquariums channel.
