CLUSTER PODCAST-TERMINAL-COMMAND · 6 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2020-06-13

Terminal podcast clients

Terminal-based podcast clients that let users subscribe, download, stream, and play episodes from the command line. The dated history is sparse, with six entries scattered between June 2020 and June 2026, showing no clear trend. All three traction leaders (pocketcli, podbit, toutui-bin) show zero stars, so no leader emerges from activity signals.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 6 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
