Oddbean new post about login | logout 💯 agree with HeyCitizen. We’ve been carrying them this whole time. They do things their way which is usually a half-assed version of what PC 2.0 is doing. Hell we had a guy manually adding their feeds to the podcastindex so they would show up in apps and be playable on V4V music shows. All the other hosting platforms are following the specs without issue but this one always gets a pass when it comes to criticism.

I'm coming at it new so I can't comment on the history. I can tell there are strong feelings, I hear y'all. But yeah, idk, I just feel sad. To an outside this seems like a Hartfield and Mccoy thing and yeah. 😪
Well, if you need any help with anything, the decentralized community is very real and very supportive. Over the years we've grown to be more vocal because in our tolerance and generosity for giving benefit-of-the-doubt, some bad actors (#wavlake) chose to take advantage. In return, I've taken it upon myself to call them out as a centralized, closed platform. At least for now, they will continue to ignore me and let me talk shit about them all I want, because addressing me or any other decentralized musician would draw too much attention to our existence. And the last thing they want is for their loyal customers to start to notice the truth... Thank you for understanding and forgiving my walls of text; I'm just so excited that musicians can finally see the beauty of decentralized citizens joining forces in order to create value for all parties involved... There's no way I could ever keep that inside! ❤
