• Fixed an issue with Google Podcasts 2022-06-22

  Fixed an issue where if 50% or more of your podcast feed contained PodQueue proxy redirect links for audio, Google Podcasts would reject the feed when you tried to subscribe to it. This is because Google Podcasts won't accept feeds where 50% or more of the audio URLs don't contain an audio file extension (e.g. .mp3, .m4a). PodQueue proxy redirect links for audio now have the appropriate file extension in the RSS feed.
