The Funkwhale music platform is alive and in active development, and they're working on a feature to filter far-right artists off the network. Some Fediverse self-hosters are divided on letting a third party decide what should be allowed in their library.

So all I have to do to fuck with Funkwhale users is tag some popular artists on a different site?

It's like 6 or 7 tags that all have the word "nazi" or "white power" in the tag. As long as Sam Hunt tracks are not being encoded that way he should be good.
