Are audio comments the next trend on platforms?


Will audio comments become the next big thing in social media engagement? — AFP Relaxnews

Spotify is reportedly experimenting with a new feature that allows users to leave audio reactions about playlists; these audio comments then become available to listen to like mini-podcasts.

Rumours regarding a new way to engage with and react to content on Spotify first started circulating on Reddit. Some users based in Vietnam recently received on their music streaming app an invitation to leave a voice comment on a playlist. The app then invites users to record their message and even edit it by adding music or cutting out certain passages, before publishing it as a mini podcast that later appears on the user's profile.
