did you start a podcast?

Shameless plug for hosting with Fountain - https://fountain.fm

• publish video to apple + rss alternate enclosure for supporting apps like fountain / pocketcasts
• manage everything with agents
• full archive transcript search with access via api
• nostr comments, boosts / zaps, livestreams
• autopost clips to social with your agent

Great first episode guys! Excited to follow along and do whatever we can with Fountain to help build out more interoperability with Boosts / Comments / any other new things you guys have ideas about!

https://fountain.fm/episode/UuNUzwhGSlxrySo83KJ2

All boosts and comments sent from Fountain are published to nostr meaning anyone can query them and build anything using the data.

Shows + Episodes are canonically referenced using podcast guids:

Podcasts hosted with Fountain can now publish video episodes directly to Apple Podcasts

Very informative thank you!

This week in London - the Podcast Standards Project met to discuss the adoption of new features that improve open podcasting for both listeners and creators.

Our goal is to keep podcasting open and ensure you always have choice of where to listen - without centralised platforms dictating the experience and forcing specific ad volumes or algorithms.

I am advocating within this group to use nostr as the social layer for podcasts - powering likes, comments, and social recommendations by using NIP-73 to canonically reference shows and episodes via their GUIDs - just like we do in

today where all of this data is open for anyone to use.

If you believe in keeping podcasting open - whilst enriching the experience to match the big platforms - help me advocate to the rest of the industry:

• use nostr:nprofile1qqsx2wyjt6lmvc05rrvv05r5hm3w3t7h0pcpmkyswrpd4ymd2u09tscpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet5jsxay4 and share feedback on what’s working and what’s not
• reach out to your favourite podcasts and tell them about nostr
• as a podcaster - ask your hosting company to support nostr
• repost / share this note with others who are interested

Fountain LIVE

We are LIVE with

https://fountain.fm/live/k5BOxyi9isDVDWKtyAM7

Fountain 1.5 is now live with a brand new trending feed showcasing which episodes and music your nostr network find valuable.

The new trending feed combines different signals to rank notes including zap value, reactions, and recency to highlight a broad set of recommendations.

We’ve also re-written the backend so feed queries along with comments, threads, and profiles now load much faster.

I’d love to hear your feedback on the new trending feed - especially if you think anything’s missing or we could give more weight to certain things.

Can someone please set this up as a http endpoint - will pay -

Sorry for the disruption guys!

Thank you

We are trying to build the best podcast listening experience possible - with episode recommendations from your nostr network natively in the app.

Give your next episode a listen on Fountain and tag me with any feedback!

is the kind 22236 view event you are using with diVine for analytics documented anywhere?

What makes podcasting special is choice - you can listen in any app - and creators can host anywhere or even self-host.

Recently we've seen more podcasters recording video - and last week Apple Podcasts announced they will soon add support for video podcasts.

But what we don't want to see with video podcasts is more walled gardens with platform lock-in.

The good news - there is already an open standard for delivering video versions of episodes - the RSS podcast:alternateEnclosure tag. If you host your podcast with Fountain - the video versions of episodes use this tag meaning any app can ingest the video and offer listeners the option to switch to video right from the player.

Apple have historically been good stewards of open podcasting - and I hope that they will adopt the alternate enclosure tag with their video implementation.

In the meantime Fountain will keep building on open standards and demonstrate how video podcasts and other new Podcasting 2.0 features can be built in an open way - https://blog.fountain.fm/p/video-podcasts

We're committed to making the Fountain app the best listening experience for podcasts - please tag me anytime if you have feedback on how we can improve!

Great coverage of the Apple Podcasts video integration and excellent interview with Justin.

Lets get Apple adopting Alternate Enclosure!

I see NIP-27 was changed to use q tags rather than e tags with mention markers - https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1751

Should I go ahead and make this switch now? Is anything to consider in terms support from clients?

thanks for fixing notification loading speed on web - super snappy now! 🙌
