@BlokchainB what podcast is this for?
@Car we've backfilled the video episodes for SNL - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/stacker-news-live/id1607607566
For Early Days - the last episode was from before we started encoding 1080p - it will take us a bit longer to re-encode but should be able to get these up next week.
From now on if you publish video episodes for either they will auto-publish to Apple Podcasts.
@Car Fountain now supports video podcasts distribution to Apple Podcasts - https://fountain.fm/blog/publish-video-to-apple-podcasts-with-fountain
Since you're already uploading video episodes - you just need to follow the setup instructions and video will automatically publish to Apple Podcasts.
Let me know once you've completed the setup and I can also backfill all previous episodes!
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 Fountain 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 Fountain 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
we had some bots that were scraping our site for podcasts and causing a massive traffic spike to both us and podcastindex that were causing some delayed feed parsing - but this should be resolved now
can you let me know if you see this again?
I know I could probably tag and ask @k00b but it would be great if there was some sn bot that I can ask something like: "give me the context on the aggressive downzapping?" - haven't followed it
no but good idea!
