The real test of a feature: can a serverless app do it?

Quote

To me, the real test of podcasting 2 .0 in all of its detail has always been, and always will be Castamatic because Castamatic is a serverless standalone app.

Summary

Dave says the real test of Podcasting 2.0 has always been standalone apps with no cloud backend, like Castamatic and AntennaPod. If they can implement a feature, it has succeeded. If it doesn't work in that scenario, the feature may still be valuable, but he'll never feel comfortable with where it landed.

    If they can do it, we've won. We've succeeded.
