I'm diving into the concept of open/ free music. I love and live foss IT stuff and would like to move to open music as well.

Is there some notable movement? Apps? Servers like peertube but for music? How to contribute? How to follow artists/ support artists

There's a section in the free music wikipedia article which I'm currently browsing. What's your experience? How do you live with free music?

I'm not interested in using it for video production but as an end user who's part of the foss movement.

Back when I got into music with LMMS (https://lmms.io/) I quickly realized professional artists can recreate eachothers songs, from scratch, in like a few hours. That's why (in my opinion) "open music" never became a thing.

I would love to be wrong though. I too spent a while looking for this, and would be excited to find out if something exists

Lol as someone who produces music for a hobby, this amused me. My actual niche in production is doing song recreations like that.
