the thing about this and newsletters and audio etc is that the very top people at Facebook are super interested in indie creators as the future of decentralized media

NEW: facebook will start rolling out podcasts on the platform next week, on june 22nd. podcasters can link up their rss feed to automatically publish there and decide whether to allow listeners to make minute-long, shareable clips of their show https://t.co/teXkhV2zJI

Podcasts are coming to Facebook! Can't wait for Facebook to slowly throttle your podcast reach and eventually make you pay to reach subscribers before Facebook eventually loses interest in the program altogether leaving their podcast section a ghost town.https://t.co/wo4sCehatV
