@the_wub @CiaraNi No sound at all is suitable for the start of any day! Not if it's audible, anyway. (I suppose sounds below the threshold of hearing are OK as long as they stay there, unamplified.)

@CiaraNi @HowardGees Eugen playing noughts and crosses with a creepy clown doll…

@Janet_52square
weatherishappening could have Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Bad Moon Rising."

@CiaraNi
Do we get to see a static test page during that time? I think I would like that.

[colesstreetpothole@weatherishappening.network]

@Janet_52square @CiaraNi @dheadshot @afewbugs @timtfj What about jorts horse? Mr. Weebl's "Amazing Horse"?

[janet_52square@sunny.garden]

@ColesStreetPothole @CiaraNi @dheadshot @afewbugs @timtfj now have to look that up.
Damn you Fediverse, damn you all to hell. I have gardening which won’t garden itself you know!!

@ColesStreetPothole thanks! Found it - of course he’s the Narwhals guy. Now putting phone away and going outside!

[colesstreetpothole@weatherishappening.network]

@Janet_52square Yup, same here!

@the_wub @timtfj Definitely too loud and lively for me as morning wake-up call, let alone a 'time to sleep' signal. Nice music, though!

[ciarani@mastodon.green]

@BenCotterill @HowardGees That's quite the image

[ciarani@mastodon.green]

@Janet_52square Instance anthems - great idea.

@dheadshot @afewbugs @timtfj

[ciarani@mastodon.green]

@rstub Yes, me too. That's what was I imagining. Not a 'screensaver' style graphic with any kind of movement, but a good old-fashioned static test card.

[ciarani@mastodon.green]

@amiserabilist Ha - nice. The Alt Text too.

@BenCotterill @HowardGees

[timtfj@mastodon.social]

@CiaraNi @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs But it means the answer to my original question is "No you can't unless you change instances"! Which is quite a cumbersome way to let each of us choose what's played to us . . .

[ciarani@mastodon.green]

@timtfj Would definitely be a lot of effort just to choose the music

@Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs

[timtfj@mastodon.social]

@CiaraNi @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs Especially in the 10 mins before closing time, having forgotten the need to earlier

[ciarani@mastodon.green]

@timtfj Indeed @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs
