Funkwhale @funkwhale@mastodon.eliotberriot.com

Hello! You may have heard about #Retribute, a project we're developping whith the Funkwhale collective and as part of our mission.

It's a set of lightweight standards and an app built from the ground-up to help you support creators on fedi and elsewhere, according to your activity and your budget.

Yesterday, we've launched our official website at https://retribute.me/! Our next milestone is to finish the first drafts for the specifications.

If you want to help with that, or simply want to know more about the project, we have weekly meeting at https://riot.im/app/#/room/#retribute:matrix.org and you can of course ask us any question you may have here!

@mastoabed you got it https://blog.funkwhale.audio/~/Announcements/atom.xml ;)

@narF ouais, le blog était à genoux avec tous les serveurs du Fédi qui font un fetch au même moment, j'ai fait un restart, ça devrait aller mieux

So, two weeks ago, we published the 0.20 release. Curious to see what we've been up to? Our bi-monthly blog post should give you some answers ;)

@ananace recently shared a Helm chart to deploy #Funkwhale on a Kubernetes cluster, you may want to give it a try!

@zalandocalrissian I think you have an issue with your mention, cc @dashie :)

@sporiff @GinnyMcQueen yeah, it is :D

Another month, another interview on our blog! This month, you can learn more about @sporiff, his involvement in the project, and his cat ;)

Now that the 0.20 release is out, we have to start the work on the next one.

After some discussions (https://governance.funkwhale.audio/d/0RJWr5Ts/a-roadmap-for-funkwhale-0-21), we have agreed on a roadmap for the 0.21 and 0.22 releases.

#Funkwhale 0.21 will focus on supporting podcasts, and easier audio publication overall (https://governance.funkwhale.audio/d/s7GTeHwU/podcast-support), in an effort to make the platform more useful to creators.

We'll also redesign the sidebar and navigation, as outlined in https://governance.funkwhale.audio/d/m9LlGf4T/redesign-of-the-sidebar-navigation

As with every release, we'll implement a handful of anti-abuse features: federated reports, screening for signups and enforced email verification

Due date: Q1 2020

We also agreed to make Funkwhale 0.22 a stability release. It means we won't introduce any new feature, but focus on stability, enhancements and bugfixes. Depending on how it goes, Funkwhale 0.22 could turn into Funkwhale 1.0, our first official stable release!

Due date: hard to guess that far in the future, but probably Q2 or Q3 2020 ;)

Acknowledging the work done by our community is important, but it's also critical to give credit to other individuals and communities who are helping us by maintaining projects that make #Funkwhale possible!

We've added a dedicated page at https://funkwhale.audio/credits/ to feature all the projects we're relying on to build Funkwhale.

Even if you cannot support us directly, supporting any of these projects will benefit us!

If you're encountering an error during migrations while upgrading on a non-docker install, please run the following command by hand:

sudo -u postgres psql funkwhale -c 'CREATE EXTENSION "citext";'

Then rerun the first migration command that caused the issue. More details at https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/issues/934

Apologies for the inconvenience

@HgO merci, plusieurs personnes m'ont remonté ce problème, faut que je documente !

@nefix I can't really host this because I have areally crappy connexion, so I can't push i'docker images from home. But if you know a hosting provider who offer arm vps, maybe we could go that way?

@GigaByte4711 sure, on https://funkwhale.audio, and also at https://network.funkwhale.audio/dashboards!
