there are reasons. Firefox has previously misbehaved with chained ogg via webaudio, old bugs that get fixed then regress, as is often the mozilla way.

Website should be updated to use a bitrate adaptive HLS stream like I do on nightride.fm - will backport that to rekt soon

I'm getting the mp3 stream too, in Firefox on Linux.

I also have a weird div covering half the viewport (vertically): https://imgur.com/a/vJqWmtO

edit: the div covering half the viewport also occurs on nightride.fm

Hmm, will look into this one. Have some idea what it might be!

Ah this is one of your extensions / plugins adding a div to the page. and my CSS defaults setting it in a particular way... Extensions that add these kinds of elements to webpages are annoying, making assumptions about styling

You can also tune into the non-rekt ones via YouTube

Any chance of support Amazon's Alexa? I frequently listen to SomaFM on alexa and would love to add your streams to my rotation.

oh we looked into that a while back, should do so again
