Funkwhale Wants to Filter Out Far-Right Music

A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
How decentralized is Funkwhale? Does everything go through their website, or do you host your own version and you get the music directly from the artists?
It's self-hosted. Originally, Funkwhale was an open source Grooveshark clone, where users uploaded music libraries to stream to various devices. A newer update introduced Channels, where artists could create their own profiles and upload their songs. So, Funkwhale kind of straddles a line between federating user libraries and artist uploads.
