if i could actually install it id love to use it but as selfhosting goes for me, even simple copy and paste tutorials decidedly, never work

I think it is a great piece of software. Unfortunately I have no real usecase for it so I don’t run it on my own. Gave it a shot in the past though.

I run my own funkwhale. But i’m not happy with it. It has so many bugs and drawbacks. Searching for remote content does not work well. Sometimes it finds it, sometimes it needs 2, 3 or 5 tries of searching for. Sometimes it does not find it. Searching is inconsistent. The UI is also inconsistent. To find what you want to click, you have to search a lot… It’s not possible to modify metadata from already uploaded music. Change mp3-tags locally an upload it again is the way… You csn not move audios between channrls and libraries. The permissions-concept is broken.

And the devs want to discuss about how to write about bigs, not about the bugs.

I will drop funkwhale. It does not make me happy.

Doesn’t have the music I listen to. Probably a copyright issue. I know I can host my instance with the copyrighted music

i use it pretty exclusively, although it has definitely got some glitches
