Does anyone actually use bathroom bluetooth speakers? (self.asklemmy)

Seems pointless and inconvenient for me as they usually seem to be poor quality, and can you really listen to music in the shower, and are you showering long enough to benefit from it?

Or do you own one and use for a different purpose, like swimming or Kayaking?

Then you shouldn't be listening to music if you can't play it without others hearing. Full stop.

You're just trying to justify your selfish behavior.

If you have to listen to music and hear your surroundings, get a pair of open ear headphones.

Y’all act like volume adjustment isn’t a thing. Just traipsing through the forest at 100 volume. It’s totally possible to adjust the volume to a level that allows one some background ambiance while able to hear the world around you. I will agree, open ear headphone would be nice on some trails.
Any suggest on good open ear headphones?

I just got these from JVC, and they're awesome. Although I did buy a $15 pair as a proof of concept before buying good ones.

Would be much easier than scrambling to hit the pause button anytime I see someone coming up on the trail.

Yeah, they're pretty great. Bone conduction ones are nice too, but definitely less comfortable imo.

Thanks! I often forget the technologies available today. I appreciate you.
