    Fantastic, I used to listen to every episode of Fireside Fedi, and then my podcast app stopped getting new episodes (since December 2025). I wondered what happened to it!

    Nice to hear Ozoned’s voice again, and interviewing the dev of my favourite Fediverse app! ;)

      I think that’s when I moved hosts. I did have it hosted on Fireside Fedi on a Peertube, but I started a Public Charity called BT Free and it’s hosting tubefree.org and I moved it there. https://tubefree.org/@firesidefedi if you’re interested. :) Sorry about that. I really fumbled that move.

      Thank you for kind words. :) Appreciate it very much. Helps me get over my imposter syndrome. :D

        Thank you! I’ve really enjoyed the diversity of guests that you’ve interviewed, and I’ve discovered a lot of creators and people on the Fediverse by listening to you, as well as learning a lot of lessons from people discussing their experiences with you.

        I had assumed that you made a deliberate choice to stop syndicating there, but if it helps fix an issue: the podcast app that I use is just the default Apple Podcasts app on iOS. Fireside Fedi has stopped syndicating there since the BMX Escape episode on 12/12/25. I’m perfectly happy to move over to listening on TubeFree if that’s where you’re at now though.

          Oh! Awesome! You made my day! That’s exactly what I was going for! :) That’s such a wonderful compliment. I REALLY appreciate it.

          The show is on Apple. I had to change it since I changed hosts. I’ve never used Apple stuff, but it says it’s syncing.

          Maybe try this one? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fireside-fedi/id1848107686

          Thank you so much for listening. :) You have a bunch of awesome guests to catch up on now! :D
