Just had a cool @automattic moment. I sent a group text last night sharing some photos. Today, I thought, that would've made a good blog post.

Podcast episodes now federate with their audio attached. Episode files sit on the podcast host rather than the media library, and anything without a media library ID was getting dropped, so episodes reached Mastodon as a cover image and nothing else.
