We're going to put together a resource for musicians on how they can have album art without using large language models. Do you have any resources you'd like to see in that? Free image libraries? Friends who can help do design? Basic how-tos?

It's #FairtradeMusicFriday! Here's a new submission thread for February.

As always, submit your own release or someone else's, it can be by #FediMusicians or not, hosted on #Bandcamp, #Faircamp, #JamCoop, #Mirlo or #SelfHosted, as long as it is by an #IndieArtist - it doesn't even need to be new.

Buying or boosting will make an artist's day 💙

#TIL that #Mirlo has funding to add basic ActivityPub federation, so their artists can be found and followed in the fediverse;

"NLNet is awarding Mirlo €40,000 to help us fund our work on decentralization.

...

Integrating a very simple version of ActivityPub (the protocol that underpins Mastodon) into Mirlo. We're being mindful that this will not be people's primary ActivityPub service, so we'll keep things simple for now."

Unstream, the app I made to quickly support the artist you're listening to, now has a Chrome extension! (+Firefox coming shortly too!)

Useful if you often listen on YouTube Music, Soundcloud and the like but want to directly support music and reduce your dependence on streaming.

Grab it here: https://unstream.stream

"It means platforms need to talk to one another, understand how each other’s technologies work, and find ways for actors who are not always used to collaborating to actually figure things out together. As you mentioned, the music industry and music distribution world often follow a startup ethos: get money, get users, grow big. This is the pattern we’d like to break from."

It's our birthday today. 🎉

Two years ago today, we filed the paperwork for Mirlo to officially become a legal entity. We're so grateful and humbled by everyone who has contributed to the experiment since then. Here's to many more years making music together on the internet! 🐦‍⬛🐸🎺
