  • Favors others platforms

    Apple podcast platform is often neglected. Was a premium supporter but Spotify gets episodes first and what appears on this platform is the free version of episodes even if you paid for premium.

    Very disappointing and will be the last time I pay for a membership.

  • DHH? Gross.

    Pretty bummed y’all had DHH on the show. Dude has done so much harm through racist policies at Basecamp and a general sneering attitude to anybody who doesn’t look/act like a white dude. Pass.
