I suggest watching the video, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QkC1aK7jfLo but the article has an OK summary.

Also a Mastodon shout-out in the video.

A lot of them don't know about or don't understand the fediverse. We need to be more proactive in asking this of the artists we love. I'll try to be better about doing my part to mention the fediverse to artists in my sphere, an especially good fit given the DIY roots of the punk/hardcore lineage of much of it.

    Tbh I think you can one time drop a very friendly but more direct: "hey have you guys thought about posting your stuff in a music community on Lemmy? It's like reddit but smaller and with a very engaged audience. I think they'd dig you there!" Or something to that effect. Just don't be a dick about it or spam them.
