Through @doktorzjivago I just realized and have tried myself to post an mp3 file to my Mastodon feed, and then go see it appear as a podcast in my Pocketcast podcast app by placing my Mastodon name as an RSS there. Quite cool! Suddenly publishing a podcast is the same as having a Mastodon account. So now for example a podcast could run its own server and have its audience on it for example. Quite cool.

I couldn't resist to add your Mastodon feed into AntennaPod app, and yep, your test pod appeared in my player.
@doktorzjivago @dtnsshow
@hehemrin @carl @doktorzjivago @dtnsshow Weird. Yesterday nothing appeared in Antennapod, today the whole feed appears, including posts with no audio.
🤔
@kallekn @carl @doktorzjivago @dtnsshow
Yes, same for me, if I open the Episodes view or from Subsbriptions open Carl Heath subscription. But in Queue, Inbox, Downloaded and more, only mp3-post is listed. (maybe there is some setting I can do in the app, or in the Mastodon account (?), else the option may be to have a dedicated Mastodon account for pods to avoid it.)
@kallekn @carl @doktorzjivago @dtnsshow (it may also be a bug in AntennaPod, that it should only fetch RSS-posts with mp3 included. On the other hand, it could be seen as a feature if I can read comments to a pod post directly in the app, on the other hand I cannot comment myself there. )
