Last Notes npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…8zna @nprofile…ax8n @nprofile…x5pc Looks like it. You should be able to see a boost to confirm. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…8zna @nprofile…x5pc I agree. It’s frustrating but I couldn’t justify keeping the Alby subscription alive when most of the sats are flowing with what I assume is lnaddress. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…x5pc @nprofile…8zna Yes. The Audacity to Podcast. I assumed it was something to do with Keysend, but that’s a bit beyond my pay grade. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…8zna I can’t seem to stream sats to you. I shut down my alby node and switched to Strike. Now podcast guru is telling me my Strike wallet isn’t compatible with your payment method. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…8zna Wait. I think I see what you’re saying. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…8zna Thinking about the in-app payment thing - what if the hosting companies provided the integration with apps that wanted to receive payments and then paid out to the shows in a similar fashion to the current hosted stripe integration some are currently don’t. App takes donation App settles with hosting companies Hosting company settles with podcaster Everybody who invests dev time gets a cut. Only one account for the podcaster to set up. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…w0mx @nprofile…td70 @nprofile…7epg Almost feels like there could be a need for 2 tags: one specific for transcripts intended to be used as captions or read along with timestamps and a second for things like web pages, PDFs, text files, and the like. For myself, I don’t care all that much about VTT vs SRT but I’d choose VTT if I had to make a choice because of the expanded capability. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger I have never had a podcast host that gives me the kind of analytics data that @nprofile…05ue does. I can get date- and time-stamped download information for all episodes at a level of granularity I could only request (and seldom receive) from previous hosts. Without coding an API call or a message to Suport. Just a simple CSV export. Makes the #analyst (and the #podcaster) in me very happy. Thanks Podhome! npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…cyex I didn’t realize Apple had gotten into the chumbox ad space. Wow. Just wow. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…ge5x @nprofile…9ap7 I just discovered that a couple weeks ago and it’s been super helpful for me in a couple of specific use-cases. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…ge5x @nprofile…r5z7 I think I’m missing James’s side of the recoding for today’s Podnews Weekly. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger You know those "Podcast Promoters?" Yeah, we all have opinions about them. But what if we actually try out the service? I did that and shared my findings in the most recent episode of @nprofile…mzcw. https://badpodcastpitches.com/follow-subscribe/ npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…sxxr Ahh. I didn’t remember that. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…sxxr School of Podcasting (Dave Jackson) comes to mind. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…r5z7 @nprofile…em4w @nprofile…y5nd Reading the feeds could miss a tag until at least one feed adds it. But it seems more likely to be accurate in my opinion. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…r5z7 @nprofile…em4w @nprofile…y5nd I was just thinking about something like this yesterday. I didn’t remember that you already had it. I would love to see this also as a matrix of selectable filters so that podcasters could quickly search for a host based on features offered. Ideally, based on tags available in the RSS feeds rather than what’s listed at podcastsapps.com, since I think that’s still a manual update. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…em4w @nprofile…y5nd oh, and @nprofile…r5z7 has this built into TrueFans https://validator.truefans.fm/ npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger It’s kind of a “throw away” show to learn how to do some new things. But I can’t just make it - I have to publish too. And for some reason, some people are downloading it too :-) https://serve.podhome.fm/achievement/eb845ebf-f8f0-4d7c-5f8a-08de0776d4db npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…6746 @nprofile…n7gm here’s the one I’m currently working on (about 30% recorded and uploaded). https://podhome.fm/app/1a28ee2d npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger I’ve started recording an audiobook of The Practice of the Presence of God. It’s free and in the public domain (and mine isn’t the only recording available - not by a long shot). It’s available here if you want to check it out. https://serve.podhome.fm/the-practice-of-the npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…3ram That was a great idea. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger Great point (about podcasting and experimentation): “And let’s be real, if you’re not experimenting and embracing the cringe, are you even trying?” https://schoolofpodcasting.com/why-your-attitude-is-more-important-than-your-gear/ npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…mp2c Just updated today. Everything went well. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…g5pf Oof. That’s not good news. Has me concerned about updating my node. I don’t keep enough sats on my node to open channels if something like this happens to me. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger My first listen on the @nprofile…yw7j native app for iOS. Congrats to @nprofile…3ram for getting this out there! https://truefans.fm/springhouse-church-sermons/685917e3e8d5bc26ecae72d3 npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…2802 I can’t seem to get it to work properly when I insert a strike payment address. It looks right in the feed, but fails in practice. I’m sure it’s user error, but my node address works every time. I tested using Fountain, Podverse, and Podcast Guru. Then I changed my payment address back to the node address. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…j90y I was really hoping they’d fix it. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…qnut ahhh. I see. This is cross posted from Nostr. Seems the bridges still miss a trick or two. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…qnut Seems you may have forgotten to answer your own question. Or maybe the relays missed it. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…3ram Love what you’re doing. Looking forward to the native apps. npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @nprofile…vu32 one I like is https://www.20k.org/ npub19kr8zy24eyxflxmrh6dueafvryr7sh7fnlzn3wjwd7y78fqfvsxqgxqdpt Bryan Entzminger @npub19v7…al4a Possibly. Maybe for on-location recordings where there background music from a PA?
