   Round numbers make me happy. Let's celebrate 700 people trying out Bandwagon.fm -- you all are amazing 🎉

   And pretty consistently, about half of those have actually followed through to publish music on the Fediverse. Even for a free tool, anyone who's managed a marketing funnel would be proud of that.

   Take music publishing as an example. If artists commit to making bandwagon.fm the primary online home for their music, they need to be sure that it will continue to exist, and they will get plenty of notice before it's shut down. Which means the people running it need to have a plan for how they will cover the costs of storing and serving a growing collection of music files, long term.

   (8/?)

   A service like bandwagon.fm could be a co-op, owned by the artists whose music it hosts. It could be a social enterprise, whose constitution prioritises the needs of those artists over the financial interests of owners.

   But however its governance is structured, one of the best ways to keep services accountable is the freedom to leave. So social publishing services need to enable publishers to use their own domain names for account and post URLs, and provide full account export.

   (10/?)

   😁😁

   Yes, Emissary already serves multiple domains from the same server cluster.

   Right now, Bandwagon.fm is two web servers and three databases (way more than I need, but fun to test on). It’s the same cluster that serves fixe or six domains.

   So yes, it’s ready to host a bunch more domains, then let people bounce from one server over to the next (on my cluster or elsewhere)
