Now that Bandcamp has had huge layoffs, what about an opensource, Fediverse-friendly replacement? What can a FOSS product bring to the community and do better than Bandcamp?

  • Discoverability?
  • Broader selection of payments platforms? Direct transfer to avoid processors? (I’m ignorant about the processing system, plus international considerations)
  • Ease of spinning up (SaaS?)
  • Content deliverability (on the fly transcode from sourced FLAC or WAVs? Rich video/multi track audio?)

    Funkwhale is the fedi alternative for music. You should go post your feature list onto their forum.

    I just took a look at faircamp, it seems nice too.

    Dogmazic.net is also a music platform (centralised) made with ampache.
