Like at this point, making music happen onto the mastodon is a trivial, albeit irritating, process.
@masklayer if I was at a computer I could just batch convert files and upload them. If I planned on doing it a lot I could just automate it. From a phone there's like two extra steps, which isn't an impediment at all. Just an irritation.
@Mainebot Still, that's at least 1 or 2 steps away from just uploading an audio file
@masklayer but there isn't a compelling reason why an audio file is verboten while a video isn't.
@masklayer like, if I record audio on my phone I'm not allowed but if I snapchatted somehow that's cool? Something something piracy rawr.
@Mainebot i've been saying this since day 1

This is the third part of an audio novella I put up on Masto a while ago. It has a static image, and horrible sound quality -- but it's around 50 minutes long. So, yeah, it can definitely be done, and yeah, it's a PITA.
@Mainebot I'd say non-trivial tbh
