Love this app. Not only is it one of the few podcast apps that is FOSS but it is a service that utilizes an open platform of podcasts. It uses the open, independent, free speech database called PodcastIndex (https://podcastindex.org/ \ https://github.com/Podcastindex-org) that is similar to gpodder but imo better. PodcastIndex was started by Adam Curry(https://wikiless.org/wiki/Adam_Curry?lang=en), one of the first podcasters ever, and a tech entrepreneur named Dave Jones. They also have an initiative called Podcasting 2.0 which attempts to create podcast standards with its own namespace.
