I can sympathize with both sides. On one hand it’s great to have a sense of community in public and it can really add to everyone’s life. But on the other hand having just had a migraine in public and regularly having conversations and thoughts in public I very much understand the desire not to.

I think it comes down to understanding the space you’re taking up with your sound. On public transit, people are stuck with you, so try to be minimally disruptive. On trails and such, we’re all here for nature, let some people enjoy its serenity. On the street, sure enjoy sharing your music but have a decent speaker for it.
