Promotion posts require active participation, with an account that is at least 30 days old. F/LOSS without a paywall has exceptions, with requirements. See the rules link for details.

(like Castopod but more emphasis on recording and editing)
You're just going to have a hard time competing with what are at this point very polished audio recorders and editors like Audacity and Reaper. The integration with the hosting platform seems unnecessary.
But I wish you the best of luck!
To keep in line with current rules, as this is on the line for a promo post, please take a look at the last two rules and tag appropriately - [CBH] or [AIP]. If you did use AI to develop, rule 8 explains the disclosure, and if you have any questions please ask.
Toss a link. I run podcasts Fireside Fed ( https://tubefree.org/@firesidefedi ) and Works On My Machine LIVE! ( https://tubefree.org/@worksonmymachine ) where I install it while talking with a developer and giving feedback, asking questions, and we learn about your application.
Edit: fixing links
I’ll have to check that all out tonight! I updated the post to include a link to the GitHub. I wasn’t sure if I should include it or not - mainly just trying to get a bit of feedback haha
Yeah I hear you. I'm always concerned promoting myself will upset folks, but more often than not folks want to know links. Easier to include and remove if needed. :-)
Edit: fixing links
Yeah, because it didntworkonmymachine. LOL Now it does tho
Lol phone typing sucks. But allows me to participate while out and about. Glad it works now. :-)
Post the link and people will check it out. Is it much different than HarborFM? I’ve played with many podcast apps so I’m curious what you got cooking. Does it support podcast 2.0 name space?
It’s actually identical to HarborFM because that is the app I’m talking about lol I’m surprised you even thought of it.
And it actually supports quite a few 2.0 name spaces already! But definitely been looking at supporting more.
Ha! That’s funny. I tried it a few months ago and liked it. Maybe I’ll have to revisit it but my server hdd just died and with prices the way they are I e been dragging my feet. I like your project though!! More 2.0 support the better!!
Could you share a link to the GitHub page?
I’ve updated the post to include a link to the GitHub! I wasn’t sure if I should publish a link or not. Thanks!
