This could be nice for folks who want a mindful alternative to the algorithm, shorts, and ads on YouTube/TikTok/Instagram.

Latest episodes of Primary Technology and Movies on the Side offer video. Let me know what you think! Huge shoutout to our host @transistor.fm for making it happen
The power of podcasts!
The @fafo.fm trailer is an excellent example of what a podcast trailer episode should be.
Short, compelling, draws you in, nice energy.

Review of the day: "I've been with Transistor for several years now, with two public podcasts and two private podcasts. The UI is easy to use with so many perks. Also, the customer service is impeccable. I LOVE Transistor." β Natalie

AI, algos... everything's moving so fast.
But while everything's moving faster, some fundamentals are truer than ever.
The highest-value algorithm is *still* word of mouth: humans telling their friends about stuff they like.
Make something people love so much, they tell their friends.
