A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

As a fellow Bandcamp enjoyer I am quite sad about its enshittification. Someone made Faircamp as an alternative. I hope that Funkwhale will fill the soundcloud/bandcamp niche.
I'm afraid that this is a big no-go for most artists, which just want to make music and don't want to be server administrators.
This is why you can have local or label instance. People have email and website without being server administrators.
One important thing the centralized sites like Bandcamp enable, is discovery of new music and artists. I'm afraid that this is such a big deal that Faircamp won't be able to take off until that problem is addressed and solved somehow.
