@dademurphy I publish 11 today, it's a bit more stable hopefully. I was asked to add a watch companion, so this should come this weekend.

@dademurphy Thanks a lot! I'll add the toggle to the settings. You could achieve that already with the default setting to add all episodes to queue. Episodes in queue will be downloaded automatically. But I'll add the button and put the new testflight out tonight.

I vibecoded my own podcast app with zero coding experience because nothing out there worked exactly how I wanted.

In case anyone is interested: TestFlight is open jollypod.app.

@nSonic ich glaube 5 ist Standard. Während der Energiekriese in der Schweiz hat das Bundesamt empfohlen, auf 7 zu erhöhen, um etwas Energie zu sparen, aber Lebensmittel wirklich bei Ablaufdatum zu konsumieren.

Ich denke daher ist zwischen 5 und 7 sinnvoll.

Diversity in podcasts is basically nonexistent. ’Women-hosted podcasts are more than twice as likely to have female guests - but even so, guests on women-hosted podcasts are still 54% male.’

Not what my recommendations in YouTube say, but better minimal bold text on YouTube thumbnails 👀

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. https://signal.org/blog/pdfs/germany-chat-control.pdf

Glad to see Apple's leaders showing so much courage.

I'm sure their founders, and the historical heroes they love to quote on their homepage on important dates, would've been so proud of the courage and values they practice today.
