Agreed. I want to love Fountain but it is buggy as hell for me. Also, I just want a playlist of unlistened podcasts and all the live/schedules stuff in fountain is noise. Castamatic seems to work the best for me, but I’m am iOS guy who was exclusively using overcast
If you claim to care about #V4V music and want to support them it’s your job as a listener to make sure the apps are working as intended and the sats are going to the artists when you Boost.
If we want to get more artists onboarded we need to make sure they are getting the sats when we boost them. These V4V music shows take hours to make and the host are sending most of the sats they get straight to the artists so the least we can do as listeners is making sure they are getting them.
I know nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 is very popular around here but they keep having a bug where when a song is playing in a podcast and you Boost the sats go to the show and not the track being played.
Most apps will show you the splits when you send the Boost or show you where the sats went after the fact.
Both of these Boosts are for the same track and you can see that the splits a completely different.

I'm iOS too but do have an android phone to test apps. I used Overcast for years before PC 2.0 but the Boosts are too cool to go back.
Fountain was super buggy when it launched a few years ago but that was all ironed out until they added Nostr and now it needs ironed out again. All part of the process and why I use multiple apps because if one is buggy I have others to use.
Love Castamatic and the only thing its missing is the Live stuff but other than that it has it all.
Yes! I’m sticking with both. Fountain is great for live stuff
