Bitwarden also supports passkeys, and works on iOS, Android, Mac, Windows etc. Mind, I’ve no idea how well it does so. Every so often, my passkeys fail in some incomprehensible way…

alternateEnclosure is supported by PodcastAddict, PodLP, TrueFans, and a few more out of the gate. It's a comparatively new tag, but one that will be quite interesting once more po…

The YouTube Music app - a pre-installed app on most new Android phones - lets you subscribe to podcasts via RSS feed. If you know the RSS feed address, that is. So I built a thing …
