So I know about Mastodon, Lemmy / Kbin, PeerTube, and Element but is there a Fediverse alternative to Music & Podcasts (preferably one that doesn’t connect to Crypto)
Looking for an alternative to Spotify? SoundCloud offers a unique platform for discovering and sharing music. With a variety of artists and genres, SoundCloud is a fresh alternative to mainstream streaming services. And if you want to increase your presence on SoundCloud, services like Promo Sound Group can help. Consider options like purchasing soundcloud plays to increase your visibility and reach a wider audience for your music. Using platforms like SoundCloud and employing promotional strategies can elevate your music career and help you connect with fans in new and interesting ways.
I would suggest piracy.
The answer is yes! It’s called FunkWhale.
I doubt it’ll be what you’re imagining, though, because of the licensing requirements for music hosted in a decentralized system. In particular, everything in the fediverse is public, so all music and podcasts hosted in the fediverse has to be licensed under the creative commons, and can’t be gated to paying customers, which does not include most music or podcasts.
I think it’s best acknowledged that FunkWhale is much closer to a federated Soundcloud than a federated Spotify. Still a very cool project.
This is a better analogy, thanks!
