The Funkwhale music platform is alive and in active development, and they're working on a feature to filter far-right artists off the network. Some Fediverse self-hosters are divided on letting a third party decide what should be allowed in their library.

If only funkwhale wasn't such a royal pain in the ass.

Yeah, the UX is historically not great. I'm also pretty sure that the federated social layer is still kind of non-existent at this point. It used to be that you could upload your own music and share it, but you'd never see replies from anybody.

It's like someone took a Grooveshark clone, shoehorned federation into it, and then kind of made some features act like SoundCloud, if you squint. But, they didn't really finish the transition.
