Hi,
I'm not sure if this is of interest, but I wanted to draw attention to a streaming service that maybe is worth mentioning.
'Funkwhale' (www.funkwhale.audio/) is a streaming platform that is part of 'Fediverse', a network of different services that want to offer a decentralized alternative to the large-scale providers such as X, Soundcloud or YouTube.
The underlying software is open source and can be operated and used on your own server or on one of the numerous hosters.
These services operate often more privacy-friendly than the major providers because they are based on a more decentralized business model than the 'walled garden' approach of YouTube, X or Soundcloud.
Usually you can also use the account created for one service (for example Mastodon, an X-alternative) on another service (for example Funkwhale), which is pretty cool.
I created an account at ketap@open.audio in case anyone wants to see what Funkwhale looks like (at the moment these are the only two recordings I have, so please don't be too harsh, that was just for the Bastl-modules and the PikoCore to try out...):
ketap@open.audio.
The video streaming alternative is called PeerTube and is based on the same principles.
Just in case someone didn't know about these services or is interested in something like that.
