Deep dives

The Evolution of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)

The Aam Aadmi Party was established as an anti-corruption movement stemming from the India Against Corruption campaign, gathering significant public support. Initially positioned against traditional political parties like the Congress and BJP, the AAP promised a transparent and accountable governance model. Over the years, questions arose about whether AAP strayed from its founding ideals, given the party's increasing similarities to the very politics it once opposed. Despite criticisms, the party maintains that its foundation remains intact while asserting that it has successfully fulfilled its promise of good governance.

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.

I tried everything and snipd is the no 1 app for podcasts if you like to remember things. Just tap your headphones three times and a snipped is created, transcribed, and saved to you library.
