You can now spin a globe and listen to a podcast from anywhere on Earth 🌍 📍 radar.rss.io#globe Every dot is a show, placed where it's made or what place it's about (the Podcasting 2.0 <podcast:location> tag). I built it this week on the new open dataset released by @davejones.bsky.social

This week, 20 years ago, I was a student in Italy and built an open source tool that let anyone publish a podcast. I maintained it for over a decade as a passion project. It became the foundation for @rss.com. For the 20th anniversary, the full story: podcastgenerator.net 💜 #podcasting #history

Podcast Generator 20th anniversary banner. It reads: "April 5, 2006 to April 5, 2026. Podcast Generator, 20 Years. The open-source engine that quietly powered a generation of podcasters".

Looks like podcast hosting company RSS.com has recently added podcast:alternativeEnclosure support, including for HLS video. I like the way they introduce it here changelog.rss.com/v26-2-1-331741

Last year was incredible for @rss.com In 2025, our podcasters published 44 years of audio (up 19% Vs 2024), and we hit record episode-share highs, reaching #7 globally. We also shipped a truly free plan, programmatic ads, IAB analytics, New P2.0 Location support, our API, and more! Cheers 2026 🚀✨

For developers (and “vibe coders” playing with AI): RSS.com public API is live 🤖 We are already working with great podcasting tools for direct publishing. Can't wait to see the automated workflows and tools people build with this! changelog.rss.com/v25-12-1-328...

We love RSS.com ❤️ But hey, we might be a little biased 😂 Our story is deeply rooted in the early years of podcasting: check it out: rss.com/blog/the-his... But let our customers do the talking...
