I feel this. I've been dreaming of running my own internet radio station ever since SHOUTcast first came out. Well it only took 25 years but I finally made it happen, yet I'm too scared to promote it cause I'm afraid that no one will want to join on as a DJ or even tune in. So here I sit, paying for the server space every month for nothing, lying to myself that this'll finally be the day that I release it to the public...
Edit: Thanks for your interest, everyone! Okay here's the link:

BTW I'll need DJs, and curators to suggest songs for rotation when no DJ is on. If you want to be a DJ, click Join at the top right of the page, No experience necessary. Use your own software/hardware, or there's a Web DJ interface you can use if you don't have any gear. I won't be on the Discord I made just yet, but I'll check the website from time to time for applications.
And no sign up necessary if you just want to suggest a tune for rotation. Just click "Suggest" at the top! Thanks again for helping make my dream come true.
Lastly, I'm a DJ myself so if this station takes off, expect regular 3-5 hour sessions from me!
Feel free to DM me a link to check out.
Edit: Check your inbox
I will once I work up the courage, lol. Plan on making a post about it too once I'm ready to launch. (Still not sure which community would be appropriate to make such a post. There isn't exactly an active community of DJs on Lemmy, at least not any I could find...)
If you don't get a DM in a few hours, check back again tomorrow.
Sounds good. I promise no judgment. I'll follow, tune in periodically, and support however I can from where I am.
And if you don't want it shared, so be it. I'll respect that.
And if you want feedback or critique, feel free to ask, but I'll likely keep it to myself otherwise.
I'm interested in this as well

I've always wanted that too. Don't worry, there are dozens of us. I used to DJ for a few SHOUTcast stations back in the day.
Send me a link, I'd be happy to check it out!

Unfortunately the link is dead.
Yeah it's cause I just switched domains. Bad timing; sorry about that. It may take up to 12-24 hours for all DNS servers to update and correctly point to the website.
EDIT: Should be working now. (At least it is on my end)
