I loved it at first but now 0.
Their app is slow, not responding, and my phone was getting so hot.

I think they are in the right path. But IMO there are some hard things that should be fixed:
  • The UX is really bad. I'm always kinda lost and it's not intuitive. Fountain should simply copy the UX of other podcast apps.
  • Fountain is a battery killer and phone gets really hot with use
I love Overcast and I'm a happy paying customers (I don't actually use any of the paid features, just trying to help the dev). Their UX is pretty slick and the "smart speed" feature is really good. I hope they will add lightning at some point in the future.

It was expected to happen, it became so viral that they broke the algorithm they had. I literally saw people promoting the app on TikTok as a way to make money. When Fountain's philosophy was listen to your favorite podcasts and win. (win-win) you won sats and you could support your favorite podcast.

I can simply say it is a boring podcast app. Uninstalling is the solution folks.

I think that Is very good

I think they improved by now with features like the new queue. How is your expierence?

They should've focused on being a decent podcast app before adding value-for-value. Getting paid a pittance to use a shitty app isn't the solution.
UI is a mess, playback issues, app freezes, not earning when it should be. I'm not supposed to be stressed out and frustrated when using a podcast app.

Fewer free sats and now it "sucks" ?
