Do you know if this still gives artists the most cash after Epic's purchase(and recent sale to songtradr)?

They charge a 15% fee. So the artist (if independent) or record label (if not) gets 85% of whatever you pay.

Sounds like they're still one of the best. That's good to hear.

I believe on Bandcamp Friday the artist gets 100% of the sale. I'm not sure if they're going to keep doing it after the sale to songtradr.

The loss of bandcamp's independence is a tragedy

Agreed. There is an emerging trend among Fedi artists to use Faircamp, but it doesn’t exactly fill the same void.
