@radiofreefedi Out of curiosity - what would fediverse APIs or infrastructure would have to have to make projects like yours approachable and maintainable by a single-ish person?
Fedi would be a brighter richer place if there were more tools and low-budget options that are easy to pick up and run with long-term.
A technical writeup would be amazing to read <3
That said - you have done remarkable job and I am truly sorry this amazing project had to end <3
@shved Technology isn’t the limiting factor, it’s meat. Most of the effort in running RFF has been people-type labour. Communicating with artists one-on-one. Vetting their music for adherence to the RFF ethos. Classifying tracks for inclusion in the Comfy or Specialty channels. Adding tags because they’re missing. Writing weekly station update toots. That stuff can’t scale without throwing more humans at it.
