Just installed. Everything seems to be stable enough. A few little niggles, on Android, the OPML export is a bit finnicky. I was using Pocket Casts and it pops up a Share menu for you to export so I had to export to my file manager first before then selecting it. The app's interface is functional but could do with some polishing, for example, you can't rearrange your set of favorite podcasts.

Biggest annoyance for me thus far is loading speed. It always takes at least a second or so to load up a page. Seems like a small thing but it has an impact overall.

I'll go ahead and second this. I'm going through and echoing my all time favorites which is painfully slow without caching. On a related point that others have already mentioned, a PWA would likely not suffer from this performance issue.

hey zukken, are you using Android as well? just looking to confirm it is an android only issue. Also saw your other comment, just tried emailing myself using my second email and it worked. (just to confirm it's [email protected])

Thanks for the info, I will be working on caching in the next version to speed up page loading.
