Was making the current wallet balance look nice more important than fixing bugs?

Ehhmm.... No, but damn procrastination feels good sometimes.

Slow lazy bugfix Sunday with a hint of app-store re-submit, good coffee in the Podfriend mug and Leonard Cohen in the headphones...

Life is indeed good.

Such an awesome Podcast Roundtable today with the awesome developers/interested parties!

Hmmm, Podfriend was rejected from the App store

"[...]. Specifically, your app provides potentially unauthorized access to third-party audio or video streaming, catalogs, and discovery services.

Hmmmm 🤔

For developers and people involved with Podcasting 2.0 or Podcast Index, we're having a meeting right now, no agenda just talking!

She said yes!

You might be 100% correct.

I was just thinking - Let's say you search for "Moe Facts"

SELECT
blah
FROM
blah
WHERE
SOUNDEX(podcastTitle) = SOUNDEX('Moe Facts')

Where the soundex for the title would of course be in a column so it doesn't need to be calculated every time.

So Martin, how are you spending your Friday?
Oh, I’m listening to Podcasting 2.0 and making a QR code by hand because I need it for tomorrow and my printer has no ink (and haven’t been used for many years)

@dave Is it todays episode or was it last weeks episode that is pre-recorded? THE PEOPLE ARE DEMANDING THEIR FRIDAY ENTERTAINMENT.... Ahem... I mean. I look forward to listening.

@marnix I'm confused! How can Podfriend appear on the chart?
(I know the payments are being flagged as lnpay.co - maybe a custom_record? I already send "app_name" in the 7629169.

But I'm also streaming (although less than 1%) to my own node.
The address is 03437da0f1e006bb118a43fad3cf2fb7e05b12319a090358928e4a85d11f14ec67 - but I can't seem to find anything like that on the map.

I'm fighting with myself around releasing Podfriend to the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

I feel it's too rough around the edges and need a lot more nice onboarding. But... I also think I might just be delaying because it feels like a big thing and I'm afraid people will hate it and give bad reviews.

So. POLL TIME! Should I focus the next week on releasing to the app stores?

@brianoflondon Seems like it's probably safe to just block the entire federation of "poa.st". What a horrible bunch of people :)

@satoshisstream
1) It seems like the keys in Field 7629169 are a bit random, Eg. itemID is almost camelcase and episode_guid is snake_case (I don't personally care, but maybe it's better to fix sooner rather tan later).

2) Is it okay to send multiple identifiers? eg. both "podcast" and "url" for the podcast and "itemID" and "episode_guid" for the episode?
