Joke’s on you, got an air fryer for Christmas and I’m roasting potatoes every day, never bought so many potatoes in my life. They’re absolutely delicious.

New comment by mrzool in "Beets: The music geek’s media organizer"

mrzool — Mon, 10 Nov 2025 12:47:24 +0000

> * brand new indie label releases (bandcamp)

> * commercial albums variants missing from musicbrainz/discogs

I fixed those two by adding the missing releases to the database beets uses as its data source (musicbrainz.org), and importing the album in Beets afterwards. I still get notifications for edits to entries I contributed over a decade ago!
