feature request: “go to podcast/episode website”-button
-
(talking about the android version) while listening to a podcast, I sometimes think “that’s something I’d like to comment on!”. In order to do this, I then need to open the browser, search for the URL to the podcast in question, then find the link to the individual episode.
A much nicer flow would be if, either on the “details” screen or the three-dot-menu in the bottom right, there was an entry for “go to podcast website” or even “go to episode website”.
afaict this info is included in typical feeds in the episode’s “<link>” tag.

(it could of course be argued that adding friction before being able to comment makes the world a better place, but..)

Ha, fair point! Thanks for the feature request and the thoughtful write-up. The idea has been added to our ideas board for the team to consider, and the more community interest it gets, the better its chances.
