Just a random thought that I had: what if there were a federated, Open-source, lyrics platform—something open and community-driven, where users could submit, edit, and annotate song lyrics, similar to how Mastodon or PeerTube works for social and video content?
In theory, it could even offer an API that centralized music platforms (Spotify, TIDAL, Deezer, Qobuz, etc.) might choose to tap into. Think of it as a libre lyrics backend with federation support.
I’d absolutely love to see or even contribute to something like this, but I don’t currently have the skills or energy to pull it off myself. Has anyone explored this idea before?
This would work better as a wiki, creative commons licensed, with a database that’s available for download separate from the website frontend (like wikipedia has).
