Hi,
I would vote for a definite no on this one. Let me explain.
Currently the hosts are all a bunch of people that would show up in a
ven diagram in the nerdy/geek/techie section.
Becoming a platform would open up the site to a much wider group of people.
No doubt amongst people with good intentions, also less likable
characters. Think of "influencers", people selling desinformation,
ultra-right (left and middle included here for completeness).
This also means al these other podcast need to be reviewed, and there
need to be rules and, consequently, enforcement of said rules.
If I look back and see what happens when somebody peddles the
anti-pandemic stuff I am getting really reluctant at endorsing becoming
a platform.
My 2 cents on the matter.
Warm greetings and salutations to my fellow hackers.
