I've listened to most shows Jupiter Broadcasting has done but now that self hosted is over, I've decided linux unplugged and the rest of the shows are no longer for me. There are two main reasons. First is the crypto currency stuff. I'm not interested and it's slowly become a bigger and bigger part of the show. It's great that people are supporting and if that's how the listeners want to do it and like hearing it talked about for a huge chunck of the episodes, fine. It just isn't for me. The second thing is Chris is so optimistic that I find him an unreliable source. I love hearing some excited about new projects and open sourse in general but I've lost count of the number of times I've checked out something he's said is the best, better than the proprietary options and other open source options, but when I try it, the project seems a few years behind what I'm currently using. The more honest take is usually that the project has a lot of promise and can be used now if you want to put in a fair bit more effort to get it setup and don't mind losing a bunch of features. So basically i just don't trust his assessment anymore and am tired of listening to talk about bitcoin.
