Rather than specific band/performer I'd have a run through

Triple J's Hottest Australian songs of all time. Of course, it's highly debatable, and may have recency bias

For a different -and maybe much broader- take worth checking out is this mix. It's only about 2 hours long and takes a popular Aussie song of each year from 1971 to 2026. You will hear songs that would never be recommended to you otherwise, though you have to put up with that guy lol. I shouldn't be disrespectful, he's done a huge job even in just putting that all together

If you can pick out some songs you like, then you can go down the artists path, and then find similar artists. Good luck

    I tried on desktop using Brave (a chrome offshoot), and it gave me the same as mobile: .

    There's no way to bypass.

    Interestingly, when I loaded on Firefox with the same VPN Aus exit, it was operating as previously.

    I seem to have some situations where Private browsing window doesn't work, but a normal browsing window does. Also, sometimes switching to a different VPN server seems to help.

    They probably used AI and vibe coded it 😂

    Seems like they fingerprint you. Eg, After visiting a sub or two, Firefox no longer works either ....

    I just happened to wander over to that inferior site reddit.

    I use a browser on phone and I don't log in and noticed that it only displayed 5 stories, instead of it's usual infinite scrolling.

    • I tried with and without a VPN set to Australia
    • Desktop mode browser was prompting to create an account or login, with no bypass

    Interestingly, setting a VPN to some other countries had it working as normal.

    Has the forced login begun?

    If their spying iw any good, the real question is, seeing as AI has eaten all the nVidia and AMD video cards:

    When cheap Chinese video cards?

    With the 2026 midterms closing in, Republicans are facing an unpopularity crisis as gas prices skyrocket and the war in Iran drags on. In this new special, “Jordan Klepper Fingers the Pulse: Red Flags,” Klepper hits the MAGA campaign trail to see if anti-communist hysteria, God's pronouns, and old-school Islamophobia can hold the GOP's fraying coalition together.

     

    Can Australians trust the labels on the food they buy?

    First of a two part investigation.

    I'm expecting major shenanigans to be uncovered.
