Self-Hosting

Self-hosting and Faircamp

Where to host Faircamp?

• Google Firebase
• Neocities (but not with MP3s), only links to other sites. You can aggregate content from, say, Mirlo, Subvert, just not host MP3s with the free version.

Funkwhale

• Oracle Cloud has a free tier that probably works. Document this.
• It is not GAFAM but still Corporate.
• todo: link to GAFAM (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft) avoidance. Is this GAMMA now!? (FB=> Meta)

Self-hosted security e.g. Security Headers

Self-hosted performance e.g. PageSpeed Insights

open.audio and other Fediverse components. Funkwhale.

Direct-to-listener

• Bandcamp
• Bandwagon
• Subvert
• Mirlo

Streaming

Streaming platforms: e.g. Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Deezer. Soundcloud. Premature professionalism.

Fediverse: e.g. Mastodon, PeerTube, PixelFeed -- move this to promotion & community?

Discoverability - those algorithms ... and where do you appear in Google search results? Do you care?
