Lastcast.fm

We realized that it's hard for people who just joined to get much value out of the site. We are working on multiple small features to make the first onboarding experience nicer.

The first feature in this list is the possibility to mark a whole podcast as "completed" with a single click.

Learning: Go through your onboarding workflow frequently to see how it feels for new users.

For a few years I was periodically searching for "Last.fm for podcasts" because I was searching for some platform to solve my "problem" of not being able to scrobble podcasts. I never found anything that does it in the way that I wanted it to work. I hope there are some more people thinking that way that might find Lastcast useful now.

Hello IndieHackers 👋

after talking about it on a lot of IndieHacker meetups we can finally share the product we were working on!

Lastcast.fm is a new platform that keeps track of your listening habits across various podcast apps. It enables you to have to a unified listening history and some insights into your personal stats. You can also easily see what your friends are listening to and explore new podcasts.

Insights range from your total amount of hours listened to which genres you prefer or how many podcasts you finished. You can also organize your favorite podcasts and episodes in lists and share them – very handy to collect podcasts or single episodes you find on social media and that are recommended to you by friends.

Especially the last point was a big pain for ourselves and so even that feature is already very useful to us.

That's just the first version that we felt comfortable with releasing (probably already later than we should have! 😅) so let us know if there's anything that doesn't work or that you would like to see!

Thanks for checking it out!
