The page... Not everyone uses Twitter and want to guess the name of the page...

Especially the way twitter is these days. I know this is off topic but I was considering starting a dev log there but I'm looking for other alternatives, any suggestions?

Well this recently created Lemmy community is empty so far, but programming.dev/c/devlogs is an option. https://lemmy.guide/link?target=!devlogs@programming.dev

Sorry I haven't mastered linking lemmy communities yet, and that one doesn't work well for me now that I test it. More directly: https://programming.dev/c/devlogs

Thank you. I didn’t mind Twitter links too much prior to all the changes, but now it’s a crap shoot when I click on a Twitter link as to whether or not it’ll load and show me the content :(.

Thanks for posting on Noteful! In case people are interested, here are the links to the iOS and Android apps:

Noteful iOS mobile app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/noteful-learn-to-read-music/id...

Noteful Android mobile app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.noteful.no...

Is anyone else having trouble with the singing?

I was able to get through the mic portion of Rhythm, but I've failed every attempt at the mic questions in Ear Training.

All I need to do is sing 2 descending notes - am I really that tone deaf? Thank God (or maybe Him thank me) that it's been decades since I was singing from the pews.

Maybe it's a known bug or an issue with my phone? Moto G 2022.

Hi, thanks for trying Noteful! I'm sorry you are having trouble with the Ear Training questions in the app.

In the ear training questions, the app is listening for particular pitches--the same pitches it plays to you. It can be a bit sensitive sometimes. Slowing down and singing the note for longer can help with matching the pitch.

Just in case the question was unclear - even for the lesson on descending/ascending notes, the app expects you to sing the notes it plays for you--arbitrary descending / ascending notes won't work.

Try the above, and see if this works for you! If it doesn't work, you can post back here or write to us at benoteful@gmail.com
