Anil DashApple is adding video support to its podcasting apps — that’s great. But the way it’s doing so might jeopardize the openness that’s kept podcasting from getting enshittified like every other form of media. It’s not too late for them to fix this. https://anildash.com/2026/02/28/apple-video-podcast-power/

Misty@beka_valentine @anildash He mentions that in the post! This is about *streamable* video podcasts rather than videos that are fully downloaded before watching.
