I want to start releasing my own music and have no interest in the corporate streaming platforms. I have only a basic conceptual understanding of torrenting but it seems to me like a nice way of sharing my music with people directly.

What do I need to do and consider in order to make a music release freely available in this way?

Currently my knowledge and experience is limited to using an application on my computer to search for and download files from others but I’m willing to learn.

Any advice or signposting much appreciated :)

    What is your instance running? I can see that it’s federated but I don’t recognise it. Thanks :)

      goto social, it implements a mastodon api but is a lot more light weight and focused on smaller user base.

      i switched to it right around the pleroma akkoma split and it’s been great since. tho now i have that annoying trusted proxy message that i thought i fixed but caddy wont fwd.
