📢 Promote yourself

Sharing your own music is strongly encouraged, even (especially!) if it's not polished. Recommending other people's music is allowed, but it should be clear that you're not sharing your own work. Basically, you must follow copyright law and avoid plagiarism of any kind.

Self-promotion is allowed and welcome! However, Musicians.Today is a place for people; it is not a job network, marketing platform, or storefront. Operate your account as yourself, and do not engage in excessive unsolicited marketing or promotion. Do not post sponsored content or promotional campaigns and contests.

If you use Spotify you can follow this playlist, which includes amazing music created by the people on this instance. Thanks to @radioanywhere for creating it! If you want to be included in this playlist (or excluded!), shoot a message to @radioanywhere or @cambraca.

📔 Guidelines

Do not post excessively large media files. This server is maintained as a hobby, and storage space is not unlimited. Instead, it is preferred to link to media content hosted by servers intended for this purpose.

Use content warnings (CW) for anything that you think might be uncomfortable for people to see. This may include politics, upsetting news, discussions about other social media, spoilers, etc.

Strive for accessibility. Always add descriptions for any images and media that you post, this helps people with disabilities see your content. Also, hashtags with multiple words should be capitalized #LikeThis, so that screen readers can read them properly.

💰 Donations

This server is maintained as a side project by real people, not a company. You can contribute using this Patreon page: patreon.com/MusiciansToday, however, donating will never be a condition to joining.
