I tell my audience to use modern podcast apps, I promote different ones, with 834k downloads in June, this is how I move the needle:

@ChrisLAS @dave Please look into how relays work. They are the weakest link in this claim and by no means censorship resistant. It is also reinventing a wheel that exists and has been rolling for a very long time. Yes, a cryptographic identify is great, until you lose your keys. Then you no longer exist. While I like that feature for my bitcoin (money) that is a recipe for disaster for online apps like the 'social media' this article discusses.

@ChrisLAS @dave
We have in fact already implemented it into the 2.0 chat feature, but of course nobody uses it.

@ChrisLAS @dave

These are not innovations.
These are solutions looking for a problem that doesn't exist.

@ademan @dave
Does not work with keysend

@merryoscar @agates @ChadF @dave @js @ademan

Podcasting v4v needed a payment solution when fist concepted

Dave and I looked at all options. Bolt12 has always been the answer, with keysend as a ramp to it.

Lnpay and getalby made it easy for devs to incorporate it with an api.

That solution is going away, and the new solution requires work to integrate the breez SDK or greenlight api.

The frustration come from nostr telling us they have the solution when they actually don't. That's all.

@polymash

Let's cut straight to what *will* happen and save you countless hours of time:

In the not too distant future, you will write your story, publish it in an RSS feed.

Modern podcast apps will do all the voice synthesising and production on the receiving end. This way people can fine tune the voice, inflection, speed and even the accent to their own taste.

Podcast apps are uniquely positioned to play this role in media production and distribution.

@js @anildash Excellent article!

@james @js @theDanielJLewis

When podcasters explain certain or all benefits to their own audiences, adoption goes up, often into the double digits.

This is much more powerful than any marketing website will ever be.

Podcasting is not a monolith platform.

That's the mistake the Podcast Industrial Complex keeps making and losing money over.

@theDanielJLewis @james @js

Set it up! I did the same with value4value.info, which even goes beyond podcasting. I point to it all the time.

Build the website, I'll point to it all day long.

This is not hat podcastindex.org should be doing.

@js @ben Isn't this what Start9 and umbrel are attempting?

@Djeep
I need to see it as I do not believe it was all for him. There were quite a number of podcasters affected by this company that didn't pay out. Not entirely a 'scam', but a company that went out of business.

@Djeep pretty old story. Not sure it was "millions"

@js Meh
Podcast Industrial Complex piece:

"The dream of podcast, as I often say, was that you could buy a cheap mic, set-up a mini-studio in your attic, and be broadcasting to millions off the back of your own talent."

Uh, no. It was about being free of gatekeepers. Money wasn't even in the equation until we started building podcast networks years later, which turned out to be unprofitable, scammy and not work very well for all stakeholders.

Why are we doing here what we do?

Look at the content removals from 'platforms' since the Digital Services Act launched in the EU

currently there are 63 thousand removals per hour.

"Hate Speech" is a huge category, outshined only by "other" and "Adult Content"

@eriner

A hypothetical we cannot prove.

Not a single podcast host has stopped hosting podcasts for this reason. And there are thousands to choose from globally.

RSS based podcasting proves it can work.

@eriner

Just so we're clear, 230 is about "interactive Computer Services", defined as follows:

e term “interactive computer service” means any information service, system, or access software provider that provides or enables computer access by multiple users to a computer server, including specifically a service or system that provides access to the Internet and such systems operated or services offered by libraries or educational institutions.

Note: multiple users

@eriner obviously I interpret this in the context of the entire statute.

@eriner

You SHOULD be liable for what you publish. That's my point.

File shares is the opposite of only using your own server for yourself.
