Nostr Web Client

So on those solutions, hosting would maybe need to be done elsewhere. Like nostr.build for example. It would be cool to have an all in one. Hosting included. Would make it easy for artists

If you're looking for a turn key solution, a company like Wavlake that handles everything is exactly what you want.

Does Wavlake support your values?

Do you mind giving them a 10% cut in exchange for the service they provide?

If Wavlake works for you, use Wavlake, they're a great solution. But if you want more ownership, there's tools to do it yourself.

It's like changing your oil. If you know how to do it, you can choose to do it yourself or pay someone else because it's not worth the hassle. No shade with either decision.

I’m already using Wavlake. I was wondering if there was a similar option already available

Podhome, Fountain if you want hosting.

Music Side Project if you want to host it yourself.

Oh so podhome and fountain do the hosting too. Every person I spoke to gave me different answers about this. Im a bit confused. I’ll look into this. Thanks

ultimately, it's just a file sitting on a web server somewhere and you need someone to host that file for you. is it you? is it a company? what do they charge? what services do they offer along with hosting? think of it as a very specific type of website and you're buying webhosting for that very specific website.

I think the confusion is theres really two pieces of info being hosted. Your media files (audio and artwork) and your rss xml file (aka your rss feed/metadata)

So which ones do both? Only Wavlake?

Podhome is a hosting solution. Publishing is baked into the process by default.

Fountain (with their RSSBlue partnership) is an AiO solution and includes a player as well (just like wavlake)

There are others but I recommend looking at podhome first. There's lots of podcast hosting solutions and just a handful of ones catered specifically for music. Because RSS is open, there are certain standards but you can pick and choose what fields you actually utilize or even create your own as long as theres a compatible app that knows to reference it.

just like a website with various files and file types :)

Exactly. Now tie digital reputation identity to it via nostr keys and now youve got the makings of a decentralized open network community.

These two can answer any questions, but yes, they have hosting. Fountain is also a player, and I believe PodHome is working on a player too.

Podhome 3mo ago

Exactly. We (Podhome.fm) ca host your music and podcasts and will distribute it to all the apps (we also have a listening app ourselves). Fountain hosting can also host and distribute your content.

Our goal is to make it super easy for you to just upload and distribute.

Podhome and podverse are two different things. Podhome is hosting/publishing and podverse is streaming

agree here 100%. some apps will exist for the soverign individual and some apps will exist as full fledged solutions where they do the work for their customer. not every human or creator fits in the same box, so we need a wide variety of solutions for all.
