I'm glad you posted about it here! I've not come across it before and really enjoying it right now.

Thanks! It's one of the few side projects I've actually followed through on releasing. There are hundreds of similar products (Noisli, A Soft Murmur, myNoise, tons of apps) which is usually why I lose interest but I hubristically thought I could build something better, or at least different enough that people would be interested, or free enough that people would be able to overlook any missing features.

I guess lots of competition means there's definitely an audience for it at least.

But that's the thing: I wasn't looking for this, and even having found it, I won't bother looking at "the competition". In my mind I don't even see "missing features" because I have zero awareness of what features could be.

I'll be honest, would I pay for it? Probably not, because I already pay Spotify. But I did look you up on LinkedIn earlier today, so as a calling card it works.

And, judging by the parent comment, you clearly have a knack for marketing it, which tends to be the differentiating factor...
