Bandcamp... What now? (lemmy.world)

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?)

Yes. The scam has mutated. All scams do. It's still a Ponzi scheme and suckers like you are still trying to fill out the bottom of the pyramid so that you're not the one holding the bag when it collapses.

When.

Not if.

Go shill crypto on that distributed messaging system specifically set up to shill crypto, dude. You'll find more receptive suckers there.
