v2023.3

Changelog - May 13, 2023

Cross-Feed Episode tracking

When you're subscribed to multiple RSS feeds for the same podcast, such as free/public and Patreon/Premium feeds. Now, when you finish listening to an episode, the app will automatically check if the episode URL is present in other subscribed feeds and mark all instances of that episode as played, according to your settings.
For now, this only applies after playback, not when an episode is manually marked as played/unplayed, but based on feedback this might change in a future version.
