Seeing if I'm able to install @Castopod on my DreamHost shared hosting. Using this guide, since I couldn't find info about it on the Castopod website.
So far the most annoying thing is the time it takes to upload the files to the SFTP… But normally I don't upload much stuff, so I haven't put any money into fast upload speeds.

Yeah, installation was really easy, actually! Setting up the podcast was a bit more annoying, but sure, ok.
But then it doesn't support .ogg files!? Don't most phones support oggs now? @Castopod
@forteller The issue is that most platform don't: Apple podcast supports only mp3 and m4a, Spotify supports only mp3.
Eventually the alternateEnclosure tag should fix that.
@Castopod I see. Thanks!
Since you're here: I really, really miss a way for people to easily download the audio file from the episode page, and a way to chose the playback speed if you choose to play it in the browser.
There's also some other stuff I could've mentioned, and maybe will at some point, but all in all so far this is a really nice experience! Great design and UX, well done!
