  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://www.theverge.com/...

  @film_girl nothing bad has ever happened when people trust facebook to keep a promise to distribute their content. It's always worked out!

  This is one platform I very definitively will not be adding The Weekly Stuff Podcast to, because Facebook is a profoundly evil organization that should not exist. https://twitter.com/...

  @MikeIsaac Remember when they outright scammed countless outlets into buying into their video platform?

  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://www.theverge.com…

  @film_girl @TechmemeChatter for 3-6 months podcasters will get incredible numbers. they will love it. facebook now owns podcast publishing. facebook will now introduce specific ads and algorithms that will completely piss everyone off, including listeners. it's what happens every…

  I cannot think of a platform I want to use less for media than Facebook. https://twitter.com/...

  @HarshKetanJakh1 Traditionally content creators have invested time and money in Facebook only to see it go to waste, so I'll stick with Apple, Spotify, and other traditional podcast players until I can anticipate a proven return

  Let me say now, that this show will never be available through Facebook. For myriad reasons, I cannot conscionably do that and remotely feel good about myself. https://twitter.com/...

  Wow @QueenEliminator just had an amazing moment on this first Facebook live audio room - where she held Zuck to answering the question about a creator middle class and revenue share. Thanks for doubling down on the question - doing better than some congressmen do at this haha

  The fact that every major platform is is just cloning the features of every other major platform is a pretty strong counter to the argument big tech advocates often make that massive scale breeds innovation. https://twitter.com/...

  They can't manage written misinformation but we think everyone should be able to publish their inane ramblings on Facebook? Yuck dude. Do tech people ever use their brains? https://twitter.com/...

  the bull argument for this is “tap our vast network and democratize your voice” but also kind of defeats the point of getting away from a central point of control....

  Somehow, I don't see myself going to Facebook for my podcasts. https://twitter.com/...
