I think there is more in common than differences in this case. But I understand your position and respect your stance.
I will NEVER give a sat to the GayFake Wavlake platform and neither should you.
Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer protocol. Musicians can self-host their art in a DECENTRALIZED matter using the RSS PROTOCOL and use the Nostr PROTOCOL to connect with others who can send them #Value4Value directly P2P. Hence why I only share #DeMu, #DecentralizedMusic and suggest you #BuildANode
With the groundwork of Podcasting 2.0, there is NO NEED for a Spotify 2.0 platform like GayFake or ANY middleman. READ AND LEARN:

GayFake took a beautiful protocol and turned it into a walled garden. They are the ONLY ONES who don't surface ALL #v4v musicians! The platform custodies artist's value, creating an undesirable need for TRUST and leading to inevitable rugpulls.
In fact, they already FROZE Russian, Iranian, Cuban and Syrian artists' accounts because they feel beholden to the US Fed game. But guess what?! BITCOIN ISN'T. Bitcoin is SOVEREIGN. Bitcoin is FREEDOM. And THIS Spotify 2.0 PLATFORM bastardizes it all.
I can't disagree with your values. Honestly, I admire your commitment.
For these reasons I'm not hosting my zine with them.
But some artists decide to do this. They could do LNbeats or use your honestly awesome template for demo.
But the artists I was trying to support chose to host with wavlake and I was trying to integrate that.
Artists are smart and quick learners. You gotta lovingly harass them to self-host.
