@FediTips - Today I'm pondering a Fediverse streaming service.
It could play all public videos on an instance.
Or it could play public music.
It could play talks, interviews or spoken information.
It might mix all of the above. ...automatically.
...and allow peer pressure to change the time of day something would be streamed?
...and show a list of stuff playing?
...linked to a searchable archive?
Fever dreams, probably.
@Ismellamuskus @FediTips - Thinking of it as a "server" limits your thinking. An "instance" is your neighbourhood, filled with social networking possibilities. Technically both are software solutions but don't underestimate the human difference.
"Professional" is nice, but the main test to clear is to avoid being a tombstone. It is better to make simple posts than referring to a dead web site, no matter how fancy the design is.
The first step - imho - would be to simply attach a sound file to one of your posts. ...and the main goal of your journey is to have an instance that automatically verifies your artist (and tech) collegues.
The local feed of that instance would be interesting from a journalistic point of view...
