This looks really simple and easy to understand. Probably no mistakes in this anywhere that would leak data:

This podcast:
https://feeds.megaphone.fm/theultimatehuman
...has the itunes block tag set. We respect that tag and do not list the feed in our directory. Apple, does not respect their own tag and lists the feed in their directory:
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ultimate-human-with-gary-brecka/id1709740887
This has happened a lot lately and I'm about to say screw it and just ditch the block tag if Apple doesn't even respect it themselves. It's generating too much busy work and confusion.

Started adding deep links to podcast apps on the New Episode and Going Live posts from the AP bridge.
The bridge was up and down a bit as I pushed changes so if you had trouble following anything you can try again now.
I'll add more podcast app links but wanted to start with 2.0 and FOSS apps, and apps from devs we have a relationship with.

2024-01-13 18:44:11

I wonder what is the best way to handle following an ap actor from the podcastindex.org website. I'd love to have an easy way to follow a podcast in your AP feed (whatever that is) from the podcast's PI page, but not sure how to accomplish that since there is no such thing as an #ActivityPub follow protocol scheme.
Seems very similar to what @npub186h…h8sr has been fighting for years with podcast protocol schemes.

@npub1g8a…ald3 @npub1pa0…pfyr @npub1zyl…mw3t A podping should be all that's required. Just submit a podping when a feed changes and if we don't have it we will pick up the ping and add it.
Did I send you a podping.cloud token?
