I mean, how many podcast apps of note even exist?

Why don't many other apps use nostr?

A niche of a niche, i'm surprised fountain even does it.

A better question, why can't I use nostr for a fountain wallet? Gotta have a proper fountain account for all the reasons I'd bother using fountain.

Podcasting 2.0 primarily uses keysend because it makes handling value splits very easy. Value splits are very important. Most nostr wallets don’t support keysend, so to ensure a good user experience across both nostr and podcasting 2.0, Fountain provides you a wallet via ZBD.

Maybe Fountain adding NWC will mean you don't have to rely on a Fountain account so much. Although the wallet they provided is top notch.

As long as the wallet supports keysend. lnaddress still creates a poor UX when dealing with splits, and many podcasts still have keysend addresses in their feeds. I’m not sure we’re getting away from keysend in podcasting any time soon.
