@news @phillycodehound

people are only using video cause they want to take advantage of the YT algo. our push back should be saying corporate algos are bad for lots of reasons but we can give you human boosts. but that requires making podcast episodes #APnative. finding a way to run podcasts off of #ActivityPub in addition to RSS.

@wjmaggos @news Yea... I'm sure someone is working on that AP-boost idea. Right now you can syndicate the blog post about the podcast to AP pretty easy with WordPress plugins and sites like Ghost federate automatically.
