Chiptune is and has always been a social, community-oriented scene. Project files and tutorials are shared far and wide to help people learn how to make chiptune using predominately *free* tools made by revered members of our community. Turning your back to that and using AI is anti-social behavior.

Now that we've had some time to get off work & confer & write things down, we've put out a quick statement, removed the albums from the October newsletter, and will be making sure that folks know when they submit their albums (which these were not, btw, we were tagged) that we won't promo AI "art."

johntayjinf.bsky.social

i have a ko-fi but i barely update it these days... i just usher people to donate there as an alternative site to support me

my bandcamp music is much more worth buying since bandcamp fridays is a thing, also the price of my tracks are name your price starting from 2 dollars! that adds up!

i honestly think promoting my bandcamp is probably the best thing i can do rn for my finances. yt takes a cut of about 30% for memberships and that's a lot more than what i am used to. i also can't guarantee the success of channel membership subs since i like keeping things to myself
johntayjinf.bsky.social
i'm genuinely considering yt memberships but i have absolutely nothing to compensate for the highest tier of members other than uh. cosmetic additions

i don't think i can make up any value upload-wise since i'm also slowing down my upload frequency to focus on game dev. maybe i need more opinions

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners

so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok
