It takes only a couple seconds to update a playlist, rather than grabbing pics/quotes/product pages and other stuff. I've never had much interest in full-time blogging or vlogging, and with so much stuff to cover (pedals, synths, drum machines, software, oddities, guitars), playlists seem like a better way to share updates.
These will be public lists, so they can be shared with people outside ILF. I really can't be bothered to spend much time on Reddit or Discord. (maybe, though, the playlists could lead to some people migrating over here
Anyway, hope everyone's looking forward to a better 2026.

As new announcements happen, I'll try to create and curate some more lists for other items of potential interest.
(no video for this) Apparently, Dan Coggins is teaming up with Thorpy FX to bring licensed Lovetone pedals back. Will there be significant interest in these? (there are a couple of companies already offering regular batches of the ? Flange and the rest of the Lovetone pedals) It's hard to speculate how many people will pay an extra $100 or so for shrunken Lovetones built by Thorpy. I'm a bit skeptical, that they'll have MIDI or added control features. I imagine they'll just be smaller with the promise of reduced noise or something.
