There’s a really cool open source alternative to Bandcamp that just came out. With some questions raised about Bandcamp’s future, some musicians in the Fediverse are leaning into the new platform as a different approach to selling their music.
Faircamp is just a static site, and doesn’t federate itself, but its adoption within the Fediverse suggests that people are at least thinking about alternative solutions.
So it is saying you would be the personal server and it builds the site for you. Being on the more creative side of computers, I don’t think you understand how confusing that all reads. I appreciate you thinking I’m smarter than I am though, lol.
Fair point, I should probably clear that up. Static site generators typically work through a process that builds pages for you on the fly, based on what’s in the folder. However, for it to be available on the Internet, you’d still need a server to run the program, so that you can generate those pages.
I’ve never hosted my own sites, I’ve always used like a godaddy. TBF, I’ve never known you could.
