An important distinction is slowly being uncovered about the definition of the term "fediverse." Who is it that gets to decide what this place is? How are we being represented? These are not easy questions to answer and if we don't do a better job describing ourselves, then the job will get done for us by people who don't understand the underlying values we hold. #fediverse#meta#threads
It was first uploaded, AFAIK, in Wiki Commons by Eukobos (I think it's Eudaimon too), dedicated to the #PublicDomain through #CC0#CCzero.

So behind with a lot of stuff because I've been busy with adding new artists, information, tracking official #SNS accounts, and fixing things over at #MusicBrainz.
MusicBrainz is a #PublicDomain database for anything related to #music. Artists, labels, tracks, albums, groups/bands, stage names, even instruments, and roles.
The database of MusicBrainz is actually used by a lot of other websites, one good example is the music tracker #LastFM and MusicBrainz sister project #ListenBrainz.
If you love to help the community, go check it out!
Or, if you've been building databases, but the info is behind non-open, non-sharing licenses, why not give your time and effort to a Public Domain database? Help the community, and tell your employer to use their database instead!
