Ive tried to find some other post about it, here on Lemmy, but haven't found it, and the funkwhale Lemmy forum is actually dead. So I have signed up for a pod, could log in, on the web, but not the original funkwhale app. So is funkwhale dead? Are there any alternatives? Or have I misunderstood how to get started with it? (I'm a newbie)

I run a pod and have about 100 active users a month, it's not dead but there isn't really a large community either, most people, even here on Lemmy don't even know it exists.

It's dead. The main dev announced they've ceased development and shut down the main instance.

do you have a link by any change to where the dev is saying that? it seems very likely considering the lack of activity, but cant find anything on his profile or blog

I'm not aware of any that do federation, but in terms of a self-hosted music streaming service, I'm aware of these:

its git repository shows activity as recent as 4 days, so i don't think it is dead. But in federating software, death only exists when all instances running the software dies.
