Back in the day I used to really like browsing soundcloud, listening to mashups, indie artists, and whatnot. Eventually soundcloud got too big and took down a lot of content (probably due to copyright) and introduced paid “pro” accounts. Is there a place like the early soundcloud on the fediverse?

    Well that was the whole purpose. What makes this Funkywhale any different?

      Federation, probably harder for music labels to go after so many instances?

        I think the opposite. Most of the instances are closed/invite only, so there’s no way to know if there’s any improperly licensed music there. 🤷‍♂️
