Looking good lads!

OK, here's the somewhat sinister but I think still reasonably pro-freedom "growth hack": you introduce an AI feature that automatically detects and skips commercials.... So the only monetization route possible is via Zaps. Value-for-value... or else. 😎

I've had an excellent experience using @Fountain as my podcast hosting platform Highly recommend for both podcasters and listeners! View quoted note →

If you are a Bitcoin podcaster or an avid 40h/PW listener, please list the reasons below why you are not using @Fountain It's extremely important feedback and the team will do everything they can to improve. The parallel system is here, it has been built, we just need to support the builders in any way we can. If not you, then who? No normies are on NOSTR, using bitcoin or ever heard of podcast2.0 V4V platforms. Step up. LFG. View quoted note →

I like this direction. I think the pricing is a bit steep though. Captivate is $19 a month, unlimited podcasts but capped downloads at 30k. Pricing goes up from there solely on how many downloads you get per month.

How do we earn for bringing podcasters over to Fountain?
