Fireside.fm (unofficial) runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. Last commit 14 Oct 2026.
Unofficial server for the Fireside.fm podcast API: podcasts, episodes, uploads and downloads.
Today is the operative word: we check Fireside.fm (unofficial) every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.
