What the title says. I'd love to hear if you have any small web recs as well!

I've been using YouTube and, though I'd like to move away from it for many reasons, I feel like I have to post there to actually reach people. I don't promote my music so I imagine that would help much more but YouTube is such a popular medium for posting music. I also use Soundcloud as an actual music platform but again, I'd like to find something smaller.

I've seen Bitview and other websites like that as an alternative to YouTube but I feel I would be clogging them. Right now I'm only posting music with an unmoving cover instead of an actual video. Another thing I could do is just put MP3s on my website, but I'm leery of that for some reason. Plus, I'd have to upgrade to Neocities premium to not host them on Catbox.

I did see Cybergrunge for music hosting as well but I was immediately greeted by porn, so.

Apologies if this is in the wrong topic zone. The making things section is primarily visual art.

YouTube is my go to too. I do have an old SoundCloud and a bandcamp I hardly use. Very little is on Spotify.
I’ve thought about bitview.
Some stuff is on my site and catbox but that’s mostly for audio players I haven’t fully integrated into my site yet lol.

Have you checked Faircamp? Maybe this works for what you need. I have no experience with it personally but I really like the idea of hosting directly from your folders.
