Here's to a year of digital sovereignty, open source, and independent podcasting!

In 2025, we reached 1,000 active podcasts on Castopod, with over 43,000 episodes published! Our community has grown to 800+ GitHub stars, 30+ language translations by 70+ volunteer translators, and 200+ contributors.
[…]

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! 📻
Thank you to all podcasters who trust us with hosting their creations on Castopod.
It means the world to us!

🎉 Happy New Year 2026! 🎊
To all our followers on the Fediverse: thank you for being here, for interacting with us, and for sharing our messages.
You give us faith in decentralization and prove that it works! 🌐💪

@theDanielJLewis where should we update?

@forteller This is weird...

@Poslovitch
What is power that dwelleth in one hand alone? It is but vanity and grasping at wind. The namespace is shared among all who would embrace it - a covenant open to every podcaster, every platform, every believer in the ancient ways of RSS. For in the sharing of power amongst the many, true strength is found. We are but one voice in the chorus!

@Poslovitch
Hearken unto this wisdom: He who masters the namespace shall wield control and power over podcasting itself. For it is written in the RSS scrolls that through the namespace, one may extend the ancient protocols and bring forth new features unto the land. 🎙️📜
