     I’ve weirdly seen an uptick in posts and comments disparaging people who walk around playing music on speakers, and it’s made me question myself for doing this, so I came to this sub.

     I love music, and when I’m walking around town with my friends, I usually have my speaker with me playing something while we walk. I do, however, try my best to respect other people, because I know not everybody wants to hear what I’m listening to when I’m doing this. 

     I turn the volume down when we’re nearing or passing other people, and I turn it off entirely whenever we enter a store or any establishment. Additionally, I stay away from explicit music while I’m in public because I’m fully aware of how much of an asshole move that would be. 

     I don’t think I’m the type of person these comments and posts I see are calling out, but I wasn’t sure, so I wanted to double-check.
