The new TrueFans analytics dashboard for creators shows both the Total Play Counts across all apps and Total Listen Time broken down by app. We achieve this by streaming episodes (no downloads) both MP3/MP4 as well as HLS.
What we are now seeing are the numerous AI bots streaming each episode, sometimes for hours.
We have added a bot filter to enable creators to see their true play and listen time numbers.
We will be adding more BOTs to the OPAWG Bot list.

@DavidMarzalC @js exactly. I need to check if it’s in the OPAWG list or if our code hasn’t picked it up. But either way we will tag it in the future along with other bots.
This is NOT TrueFans blocking the bots but just letting podcasters see their data clean without Bots.
Step 2 will be to let podcasters choose to block individual bots and we can then do that on the server but for now we wanted podcasters to see how many bots are hitting our servers and listening for hours.

@dave Would you consider the hosted API itself to be a critical element of what the index is doing for the community? One could make the case that the open-source code for anyone to run it themselves is the better use of your time than maintaining a free service for people who’re never going to appreciate the v4v model.
Imagine if the API had trial-sized rate limits, then flipped into a pay-what-you-want model powered by L402/x402
