@Castopod thanks for all you do! Castopod works like a dream for me.
π«Ά Thank you @inpc !
We hope all podcasters will keep on podcasting in 2026, and that many new creators will give it a try.
Podcasting is one of the last social networks not entirely controlled by a big corporation.
We need diversity, not algorithms! π»
Thank you to all podcasters who trust us with hosting their creations on Castopod.
It means the world to us!
