    Podcasts should not lock themselves down to one platform when Podcasts are already so free with RSS. Paid subscription podcasts can already be supported with things like Patreon or oven things like Substack or Ghost. Discoverability is hard for sure, but the trade off I think is far greater when you can still post to KZread and funnel to your self-owned corners of the internet.

    I think they are mostly thinking of "youtube but for podcasts"...but maybe instead we can have something like "imdb but for podcasts" for discoverability. Though, because of the RSS feeds being platform agnostic, the podcast listeners are on so many different apps and platforms, that that makes it different to get all of them to come to your new app that you created for discoverability.

    I was shocked when I learned that Google takes a 30% cut from all "super chats" on KZread. Those super chats are basically donations from the fans to the creator and it seems highly unethical to take a cut of a donation of any kind. The problem is that the donors are not even aware of that. I saw a $500 super chat and I am pretty sure that the donor would be furious if he learned that $150 of that go to Google. Patreon for example takes a much smaller cut.
