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!

After reading about a major #Funkwhale instance shutting down, I'm wondering whether I should keep my podcast on open.audio.
https://blog.liberta.vip/libertadmin/its-over-for-liberta-audio
However, the idea of an audio app that uses #ActivityPub to be part of the #Fediverse is excellent.
Any suggestions on where to host a #podcast?
P. S. I just discovered @Castopod , an alternative to @funkwhale
I want to inspect which one is more stable, and if there are good servers as well. Feedback welcome!
