Some interesting discussion about metadata and lots of kind and positive mentions of MetaBrainz services. I'm trying not to get too sidetracked by their forums, which has a lot of interesting discussions going on, but I may report back on details or ask devs if they want to have meetings with Subvert folks in future FYI

Early days obviously, but a cool project and so far seems genuinely artist-focussed. I like to think my crap-dar is pretty good these days so fingers crossed!

Do we know what Spotube is and why people keep mentioning it in their bios when signing up and the like?
Is the lag due to AI crawlers again? Wondering if I need to reshare our by-now-classic "wondering if MB is slow because of AI crawlers? The answer is almost always yes" social post

Last Monday I put out a prod release, and after that I went to France, ate a lot of nice food and listened to some Sibelius

for example, just as this meeting started, after consulting with zas et al i decided to give [anubis](https://anubis.techaro.lol) a test run on our jira instance
2025-11-10 31449, 2025

so far pretty decent, i made sure to add rules allowing legit bot traffic like our monitoring tools through

it doesn't have as much configurability as e.g. [go-away](https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away) (for example, respecting session cookies issued by jira) so i may give that a shot as well
2025-11-10 31458, 2025
julian45[m]
also on the hopeful docket for this coming week includes getting around to some backlog tasks like updating jira deployment/maintenance playbooks

Hi
2025-11-10 31420, 2025
outsidecontext[m
I got back to some Picard tasks. I looked into updating the Github Action builds due to deprecation of the macos-13 image. It's getting more difficult to support the older builds, though. We really need to move forward. I had some time put into the plugins v3. Also some code review and ticket investigation.
