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.

What exactly is funkwhale? It looks like a federated music platform of some sort?

It's basically an open source, federated clone of GrooveShark, which was kind of like Plex but just for music.
