[EDITING IMPROVEMENTS]
👀 You can now preview and share your episode before publishing it!
+ your usual bug fixes 🙂
As always, you may grab Castopod - for free - on https://castopod.org
@feditips @pax @funkwhale For people who are fine with self-hosting there is also @Castopod which is podcasting specific and seems promising :)
We just published the initial package for @Castopod ready for testing everyone :)
As always, report package bugs at https://forum.cloudron.io/category/172/castopod
“Mastodon makes sense for Interledger as it has been built to address a number of similar concerns around decentralisation and the exploitation of users and their data that members of the Interledger Community have expressed over the years.

I did see that Whisper was available as a free software package to run locally, and from time to time I tried to look into this and to get it working. But I never had any luck.
Until yesterday, when I read a blogpost from @Castopod. Finally someone who explained it in terms that even I could understand. https://blog.castopod.org/transcribe-your-podcast-for-free-using-only-a-laptop-and-whisper/
After following instructions and downloading at least 10 GB of data, I gave it a try, and it worked! It worked amazingly!
A big thank you and shout out to the team at @Castopod for migrating my podcast from self-hosted to Castopod.com. Seamless transition and the RSS feed didn’t even change!
shout out to @Castopod - such an amazing tool
"Self-host your podcasts with ease, keep control over what you create and talk to your audience without any middleman. "
@DrTCombs The neat thing is that any website that let's you upload audio files and creates an rss feed will do. Including Mastodon or WordPress. But there are also specific podcasting services, like podcast plugins for WordPress, or @Castopod.
And as someone else mentioned, Audacity works fine for editing, and is free both as in beer and as in freedom :)

@grincheux @hastur @doktorzjivago non je ne connaissais pas. C'est intéressant mais ça reste une bidouille, tu n'auras pas de moyen d'ajouter toutes les balises nécessaires pour être dispo sur les plateformes je pense.
Mais pour faire du podcast en étant compatible fediverse etc, je conseillerai plutôt @Castopod
Gratuit et open source, facilement installable etc et directement compatible mastodon !
