I see on bandwagon.fm the mention "Anyone can run their own Bandwagon server and share their music on a site they control. This server (Bandwagon.fm) is the flagship domain for the Bandwagon project; the first of many that we hope will join us in the near future."

So far I've only seen posts of music on bandwagon.fm instead of music on someone own's server with the bandwagon protocol. Does anyone have a link to bandwagon music that is not on bandwagon.fm itself?

This concerns this github issue to get #Bandwagon music scrobbled by #WebScrobbler:

@benpate , maybe you have examples, since Bandwagon is your app?

Hello!

Right now, I think bandwagon.fm is the only Bandwagon server running in production. I know a few people have experimented with their own, but I don’t know anyone who has actually launched 😢

But I’m very eager to help get other Bandwagon servers up and running. So if this interests you, I’d love to talk.

Cheers for the response, Ben. I don't have any music to host, so in that sense I'm not necessarily interested. Sorry! 😅

When I issued my request to #WebScrobbler to support scrobbling plays from #Bandwagon I simply mentioned that it may need an implementation that can detect from Bandwagon on bandwagon.fm and other servers. And they asked me for an example of an other server.

But if there is no other server running Bandwagon for now, I'll let them know.

Regardless of my original question: thanks for the nice work on Bandwagon. 👌

Thank you. I think I understand the context better now.

I haven’t done much for scrobbling so far, but it has come up in the past.

When we (finally) get a network of Bandwgon servers out there, we can go back and make something general that will work across all of them :)

Sounds great, Ben. Thanks. :)

Another question: how does an album with multiple artists look in Bandwagon? For instance, a compilation with various artists.

Per comment from Rob of #WebScrobbler - see github issue in earlier toot - and after checking myself, it looks like an album page on Bandwagon does not mention the artist per each single song, but just for the entire album. If there would be multiple artists, how would that then work? Or is multiple artists per album unavailable for now?
