Created a guide over the weekend on hosting a podcast with PeerTube. Going with Spotify/YouTube is tempting for many, but they may not have realized how easy/affordable PeerTube has become for hosting and maintaining complete control of a feed.

    most major podcasts are audio only

    Look again. 8 of the top 10 podcasts right now all have video.

    it would still not be a podcast if it requires there to be a video with it

    None of them “require” video.

      Spotify isn’t the only source of podcasts 🙄

      And it was you that talked about requiring video.

        Spotify has a large enough market share to be considered an authority on what’s popular. If there’s another platform you’d like to share that contradicts my assessment, feel free to share it, but like everything else you’ve said, I assume your response will be something along the lines of “I don’t need to back up my nonsense because everyone knows it already!!!”.

        And it was you that talked about requiring video.

        I sure didn’t. You literally just made that up.

          Sure, now you are backtracking 🙄 Replying to someone suggesting a dedicated podcast platform with “it doesn’t support video” is in no way implying that in needs to support video, right? You are just gishgallopping BS here now 🤷

            I am not backtracking. You are lying and gaslighting.

            Replying to someone suggesting a dedicated podcast platform with “it doesn’t support video” is in no way implying that in needs to support video, right?

            …yes? That’s exactly right. Especially in the context of someone asking specifically “why would I use this particular platform?”

            Goodbye.
