I'd say podcast tech "moves very slowly", but even that's generous — podcast tech hardly moves at all.

But that's a GOOD THING!

Most efforts to move podcast tech "forward" have failed due to insufficient adoption. But most would’ve meant more potential for platform lock-in and increased ad-tech and tracking possibilities, either by design or as unintended consequences.

Podcasts' technical simplicity is not a problem to be solved — it's a defense from platform vultures and ad-tech assholes.
