Currently it does not have an editor, but that is something I'm looking into more.

If you're currently hosting a podcast, what's one part of the publishing process that you wish you could just skip? I'll be taking notes! 📝
Other than integrating the Jetstream/analytics for better observability, I've been rethinking the "export" experience.
Sharing your podcasts to Spotify or Apple shouldn't feel like a chore. I'm trying to create a simpler, less extensive flow that will make exporting your podcast feel easier.
Since our initial launch on March 8, I've been diving a bit deeper into how different platform workflows impact users.
The obvious concern is performance. Our users deserve a fast, and fluid experience that does not get in the way of publishing their podcasts.
Bummed about not making it to the conf next week, but will be tuning in virtually!!
The implementation I am working with and testing locally is Bluesky activity vs VoxPort plays, both streams visible.
It depends on what we're ingesting. Currently we are tracking likes, follows, and posts/mentions via the Jetstream. V2 adds reposts. Velocity shows separate trend lines per metric. We're not deduplicating overlapping listeners yet, but the collection filter determines what's on the dashboard
Our goal is to continue building a platform where podcasters can own their content while receiving analytics across the ATProto network.
Next up: reduce friction throughout the distribution process!
I can't lie, this has been fun to build 😀
New analytics dashboard will have velocity metrics, top engagers, and cross platform comparison between your podcast audience and ATProto community.
Studio UI updates for clearer episode management and a refreshed analytics experience!
Our next update will be an exciting one! Jetstream integration will capture every like, follow, repost, and mention as it's happening!
This will allow podcasters to see exactly how their content resonates across the ATProto network.
Had to take a quick walk to the beach with one of the pups! 🐕🌊
Nice to wind down a bit and not worry about DB migration mismatches for a second. 😅
Thanks again @hipstersmoothie.com !!
Had a very productive call with a podcaster yesterday. Love hearing from podcasters and understanding what would make their life easier in the studio!
Let us know: What are some non-negotiable features you expect from a podcasting distribution tool 😁
Excited to show some of the new updates that will be coming soon!
More details will be explained when its shipped 👍
RSS will be in the following update and allow users to export to Spotify starting out. 🎙️
Which platform should we add to our distribution list next?
Jetstream is set up locally and working as it should be! 🎉
Adding the Jetstream will be a bonus for the podcaster dashboard. We will be able to give users a better view of their engagement.
RSS is also key to what VoxPort's goal is. We want to be a distribution center for podcasters.
Agreed!
Just shipped some performance upgrades!
If you noticed any slow load times, they should be fixed now.
Your podcast studio/lounge should now feel noticeably snappier now!
Building in public means sharing the wins AND the "why did that just take 10 seconds to load" 😅
It's Follow Friday! I've got 4 podcasts I would like to share!
- @criticalrole.bsky.social
- @syntax.fm
- @devtools.fm
- @smartless.bsky.social
Follow Friday is coming up. Start thinking of what podcasters you think people should be listening to and following!
When you find a new podcast you love, how do you usually share it?
- Repost it on socials
- DM (on @germnetwork.com of course) it to a friend
- Text the link to a group chat
- Write about it on @leaflet.pub or @pckt.blog
- You don't share it - gatekeeping your favorites 🤣
VoxPort maps your podcast identity to a Permanent DID!
If you are a creator/podcaster and want to join this movement of ownership, visit voxport.live
True freedom isn't just about decentralized social, but about Sovereign Creative Identity.
This is exactly why we have built VoxPort. We aren't just building another podcast host. We are building an audio studio on the AT Protocol.
Traditional hosts lock your identity into a database.
Legacy platforms that are known today in the podcasting world operate differently than we do.
It's the thought between "Renting vs Owning"
Your followers, your data, and your relationship with YOUR audience should be YOURS!
There should definitely be a podcast for ATProto builders right?! 🎙️🎧😎
