#Fediverse music service #Bandwagon, an ActivityPub-enabled alternative to #Bandcamp, is testing out a #music discovery search engine.

I welcome this development, especially early in the development cycle.

One of the key stumbling blocks with the Fediverse is social discovery. So to see this happening is fantastic!

Hey #Musicians, if you're on #Bandwagon, the time has come.

I'm prepping the #SearchEngine and giving you a preview of how it'll work. Just jump over to bandwagon.fm and hit "Discover" to check it out.

I'm really pleased with this first step, but it will still be a just dumb, empty shell until we can get all your music is tagged, and optimize the tags/categories together.

You can read my full post at https://bandwagon.fm/2025-01-22-Search-Engine for all the details.

I can't wait to hear what you think.
