I pay to listen to songs. Do I own them?

The fact that there’s more than one copy of TWINSCAN EXE 5k seems important

Feature request: a worldle style share button. E.g. 42%(DE emoji) 20%(Puzzle emoji)

This is great. Showing only even hours would be less text, maybe as an option. As I’m looking at it to plan late night activities it shows this mornings forecast where I kind of expect tomorrow’s. Maybe make a continual S curve that can be scrolled by touch? Maybe less elegant, maybe more?

Way down on my list of projects to vibe code is tags for HN users. I.e `Elon Stan` , `smart about aeronautics` , `grumpy` , `reasonable` etc etc. I like reading different opinion but if I formed an opinion about a user id like to record that without using my brain
