  Ngl, I thought the name was ‘Fuckwhale’

  What if we added a P2P element so we could share our music and own it instead of streaming it? Oh wait, that’s soulseek.

  Who keeps posting this? This feels inches away from a monetized subscription service.

    I don’t think you’re supposed to host music you don’t have the rights to. I think you’re supposed to post your own music

      That’s fare enough, so who handles licensing. How do you protect the copy left aspect of your music? How do you prevent your work from being freebooted?

    What are you saying? This is an open source project that is connected to the fediverse. It aims to be something comparable to soundcloud where people can share their music. What about this is says monetization?

      The publishing in the add copy. There’s no talk of how licensing is handled or who hosts what where. Just because it starts off as OSS and self hosted does not mean it stays that way.

  And possible federation as well, very nice. Is this using SolidPods or did they just name there server similarly?

    It is federated, but no, it isn’t connected to Solid pods. Pods are just the term for flocks of whales 🙂

  The website looks like it’s trying to sell me something

    I have no idea why open source projects would want to use illustrations with this big tech corporate artstyle in their apps and documetation pages.

    They seem to get them from undraw.co

      It looks clean, maybe not very original but better than a early 2000s looking-ass website

    No it’s an open-source service to host your audio.

  I know it’s not the intention, but can you use this to host copyrighted music?
