The Tech Stuff

Apple Podcasts

  • Above – what a request from the Apple Podcasts web player looks like, as seen by OP3. The user-agent looks like a browser; but the “referer” header makes it clear that this is coming from Apple Podcasts. Many podcast hosting companies (Ausha, Buzzsprout, Spreaker, Captivate and Transistor), and OP3, are using the referer to count these as Apple Podcasts downloads.
  • We still don’t know how Apple Podcasts Connect sees plays on the Apple Podcasts web player. Spotify says that plays on their embedded player only count if a user is logged-in; and we would expect that to be the same in Apple Podcasts for the web. Would anyone like to test this theory?
  • Programming podcast things in Rust? The v4v crate might help, with a splits calculation function and Alby API tools.
  • A new symbol for the fediverse has been proposed. The symbol is ⁂ and we like it, so you’ll find that on our website we’ve switched out the impractical old multi-coloured logo thing, and/or the Mastodon logo, to this instead. You can follow us there, by the way: @[email protected]
  • Audiobookshelf is a self-hosted audiobook and podcast server.
