Highlights a problem with reliance on a big centralized distributor with an editorial policy and a conflict of interests.
Perhaps he should start a podcast, like so many others have done :-)
- mark_l_watson 3y agoGreat idea. I like the model of people doing a generic podcasts that I can listen to on a choice of platforms, including Apple Podcasts, and if I want to watch people talking then watch on YouTube or Rumble. BTW, I am mildly put off by some of the conservative content on Rumble, but with YouTube sometimes seeming arbitrary in censoring material, I sometimes will watch Rumble just to support them as an option. I find the centralization and control by the mega tech companies to be very disturbing. +100 for Mastodon.
- smellythief 3y ago> and if I want to watch people talking then watch on YouTube or Rumble. Or he could just make a video podcast. Video podcasts _are_ a thing, though most podcasters don't go that route. That would be better than going the youtube route imo, since podcasts are decentralized. Apple Podcasts isn't really a platform; it just an app that interfaces with the RSS feed of decentralized podcasts.
