This is a +1

Music has always been important to me. Recently I've been studying and practicing music production, I've also been engaging a lot with the producer community. When I can I point out the importance of having your own Domain, Website, Storage solution (for backups) and last but not least Publication. To be honest one of the most relevant conversations I have had are about lost computers aka projects and therefore production...Of course we have storage & sync solutions for that but the other major factor is publication and specifically for music Funkwhale is the best "soundcloud" alternative for Independent Artists/Producers

@plusone-nick Nice. I have a repo on GitLab for my Ableton stuff if you're interested: http://gitlab.com/ableton

GitLab itself makes a good alternative to splice.com/studio too for collaboration.

@marcusquinn Nice! I use FL but will check it out! & Interesting - I was considering using Git but when I looked into it I didnt see many people doing it with it comes to DAW Project files lol so I opted with SyncThing and that has been very nice thus far. Never have to initiate any backup.

I can see the ease of collaborating/sharing projects with Git - atm I move projects from my desktop or SyncThing to Nectcloud, not a bad workflow =]
Also with the new cloudron file manager its easy to download projects

There is now an alternative "all in one docker" image for this app
I'm not sure if this https://hub.docker.com/r/funkwhale/all-in-one fits with the cloudron best practice (1 process by container)

This is an alternative Docker image you can use to deploy Funkwhale, that does not follow the "one process per container" philosophy. This one contains Postgres, Redis, Nginx and all the needed files and configuration to start a dockerized Funkwhale instance in a single container

@girish fingers and toes crossed some people with the skills step up...

@jdaviescoates In fact, I had actually started packaging it last week on the side.

It seems there are some funds available for those interested -https://governance.funkwhale.audio/d/QyEBOaV6/status-of-our-nlnet-funding

Yes, of course, that's the plan. I am confident someone will step up It's a great app, has subsonic support, federation, can setup radio station, really nice.

@girish I had better resume uploading all my music so I can properly play with in once we've got it...
