Don't become the central repository

Quote

I don't want Google to rely on us, I don't want to be the go, everybody has to go to COVID I don't want to be the good central repository for the universe, like we, the whole idea here is that everybody can see it. So everybody builds their own list

Summary

Dave doesn't want Podcast Index to become the single source everyone depends on. The goal is open data that anyone can build their own lists from.

    people love it when people grab the database and do their own thing. Yeah, it's more. It's more decentralized than everybody just simply pointing to us.
