Reply to I've always had a mental block about understanding music. What's the best way to learn music theory for someone who is intimidated by it? by Jelello

Learn an instrument. Don't pick based on your preference of what you'd think be cool to play. Pick something easy you can play melodies with. Drums don't work, no melody. Guitar doesn't work, it's really, really hard to play melodies with a guitar. Pretty much all string instruments are out because of this. The recorder is more or less as basic as it gets. And it's cheap. Which is why I recommend it. There ain't too many notes you can play with it, either, which helps with the theory part.

The reason music theory is intimidating to folks usually is because it's a foreign concept with little use. If you play an instrument you'll have use for it. It's like with a language, the simplest way to learn a foreign language is by using it to communicate. Not by reading books.

What do you want to understand, anyway?

Imo "normies" will be even more unaware of their privacy than they are now, whilst us and maybe more tech-savvy people will use alternative platforms and networks. btw I never understood the "surveillance=safe" equation, even irl. I mean, having cameras everywhere didn't make us safer...

P.S. why Mozilla can't shut up and harden firefox?
