The Problem

Is your feed draining your energy?

Typical apps view your attention as a resource to be mined. They bombard you with "Recommended for You" videos, social clout, and endless noise.

Noise

  • Algorithmic Feeds
  • Video Shorts
  • Social Pressure

Signal

  • Your Subscriptions
  • Chronological Order
  • Pure Audio Focus

Indie Philosophy

Built by a developer,
not a corporation.

"In a world screaming for your attention, silence is a luxury. I built Minimal Podcast because I missed the simplicity of the early internet. No investors demanding I hijack your brain for ad revenue. Just a tool that respects your time."
