An open source, self-hostable music platform will soon allow people on the Fediverse to buy music and support artists. Here's why it's a big deal.

I'm hopeful for this! I'd be happy to pay for music if the price is reasonable and I know it's going to the artists and not some dumb record label.

>the Fediverse today lacks any kind of commerce
This is not true. I already told you about that when you published a promotional post about subclub (which didn't last), but now you're saying it again. Why?

I barely know anything about you or the service, but your posts in that thread actively drive me away from it.

That's fine, my posts were not about any particular services. I am concerned with false statements in widely shared articles.

@silverpill @underline960 @fediverse have you made a walk through video about how to send someone money through Mitra and show what the flow looks like? I think that might be useful to highlight
silverpill@mitra.social · 2 pts · 1y
One of Mitra users made a video about subs long time ago, I can't find it now. You're right, I should make a video too (and also a website etc etc).
But I need to finish nomadic identity first, as it is the main objective of the project.
