Funkwale need buildin donations for artists to be a serious platform
That would be nice, yes.
The artist donation model is the real innovation here. Most music streaming sucks because the economics are backwards. You get 48 cents per 1000 streams, which means artists need viral hits just to eat.
Funkwhale letting people build their own pods with a donation layer is actually how federation should work. Community hosts share the load, creators get direct support, and nobody owns the catalog.
Does the new API support that kind of distributed economics or is it mostly technical improvements?
