Funkwhale

Funkwhale is an open-source, self-hosted music streaming platform. It allows users to upload, share, and listen to music. The platform categorizes music by artist, album, genre, playlist, and record label, and supports direct searches. It's accessible on Android, iOS, and desktop devices.

Funkwhale enables access to personal music collections from anywhere and supports advanced sharing features. Artists and podcasters can publish their work, and listeners can follow releases or subscribe to podcasts. As a decentralized platform, content can be shared across instances or moderated to limit misuse.

The platform is community-driven and built using open-source technology. It doesn't use third-party analytics, tracking, or advertisements. Users can listen to music and podcasts from a web browser or compatible apps. They can share playlists, albums, or large parts of their library and explore content shared by the community. Artists and podcasters can create channels for their work and notify followers of new releases. They can also embed their content on other platforms using Funkwhale's export widget.
