I see everyone building other types of apps on Nostr besides podcasting apps. Just curious why someone hasn't built or added podcasting to a Nostr app.

Kind of like what Breez did a few years back. It was a wallet that added podcasting.

Podcasting 2.0 embraced splits. Without controlling wallets, splits are harder to do in nostr. The Skirmish had like 16 splits or something. That’s a very bad user experience using lnaddress only wallets.

If you’re just building an mp3 player and worried about zapping a single address, podcasting on nostr is actually quite doable. What I’ve been finding quite problematic is how you handle splits. Imagine if someone zaps by opening up CashApp to pay an invoice. Now imagine doing that 16 times per zap to pay each split. Until splits are handled more elegantly, I think anyone interested in podcasting will stick with the tools PC2.0 has developed.
