Who misses Grooveshark ?

I used to work at Grooveshark back in the day designing and building ads and themes for the site… Boy, did miss the culture and product and community sometimes

some screenshots from the dev days, my cloud app account seems like most of the files no longer accessible:

Heard of FunkWhale? The open source, federated audio platform?
funkwhale.audio
I hope that it gets to be as good abd popular as GrooveShark was.

It was a pretty cool music platform. I was sorry to see it go but given the circumstances there wasn’t much choice. It’s a pity, it could have probably transitioned into a legit music service. The interface was nice and it had some unique features.

From what I remember the thing that sunk it (when it was inevitably sued) was the fact the boss had made all the employees share mp3’s to help the platform take off.

I was heartbroken when Grooveshark went away. I'd built up so much music and there was a lot of obscure stuff I've never found again.

I know it's not exactly the same, but take a look at https://funkwhale.audio/. A bit like grooveshark for the Fediverse. Maybe this could ease the heartbreak a bit?

I used the fuck out of Grooveshark. It was a great platform.

I also used the old version of 8tracks.com when it was awesome, but it died a long time ago and has been replaced with a corpse of its former self
