Curiosity for micro payments got me in the door.
The simple sharing of clips is what I stayed for.
I don't want to send my friends a 4h Lex Fridman pod, I just want to send them the clip which relates to my point.
Sure, there are always things that need improving for any early product.
But the seamless introduction of "money flow" inside an audio experience app, that's really novel and makes so much sense.
Nobody pulled it off so far.
And for the sake of content creators I hope Fountain keeps growing.
We need less comment spam and more direct monetisation mechanisms for content creators.
Great app, migration from other podcasting apps is easy. It differentiates from other similar apps in the sense that it integrates a native microtransactional ecosystem build on bitcoin. This allows something I've never seen in any other app, which is a solid and transparent price discovery tool for content.
Intuitive UI, smooth UX, and novel bitcoin-integrated interaction features to support your favorite content creators? Really nothing like it on the market. Been using Fountain since the earliest Beta's and have been impressed with how far the platform has come. Thanks for building this, team!
