Are we nearer to cross-app feedback?

Final week, Transistor added assist for auto-posting to the social media platform Bluesky: when publishing every new episode, a message is posted to the Bluesky platform, and any replies to that message are pulled again into the podcast’s web site. Here’s an example of those comments on a Transistor podcast episode web page.

At this time, Transistor has added support for the podcast:socialInteract tag, viewable inside the RSS feed for the present. That enables podcast apps to hyperlink on to the basis message for every episode.

And – Bluesky has a easy, open API to fetch your entire remark thread as JSON – no want for authentication. Here it is for the example thread. So, any podcast app can pull within the feedback and show them nonetheless they’d like, with none trouble, simply by utilizing the information held inside the socialInteract tag for this episode.

For a listener to depart a remark, podcast apps can hyperlink to the Bluesky app or web site. Or, podcast apps can implement the complete AT protocol, and permit Bluesky customers to log in by way of their podcast app, utilizing OAuth, to put up a reply direct from the app itself.

Remark moderation, consumer accounts, bans and reporting messages and so on, can all be handled by Bluesky.

We appreciated it as an idea, and questioned how arduous it might be to code for. It took us an hour or so; in at the moment’s website version of this newsletter, you’ll see feedback pulled from Bluesky (by way of a proxy for privateness); and the socialInteract tag is in our RSS feed, permitting any podcast app to do the identical. And we put up each new e-newsletter to Bluesky.

It’s not good; but it surely’s a easy, easy methodology to do feedback for exhibits that need them. So is that this, lastly, a simple means in to do cross-app feedback?
