I feel like we should unpack that at some point, but now is not that time.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, good deal. I hope the beta and release goes well.

I mean, it makes sense, and I'm looking forward to seeing that released, and maybe we can do a post-mortem after the fact and see how the response has been. But we'll get there eventually. Returning to Ask ATP, Chakran writes, given the fair complaint about one-star reviews and the lack of other venues where users feel empowered to give feedback, should apps have open bug trackers?

Users would be able to say that this issue someone reported is affecting them too, maybe write a recommendation for how to address it, open up a communication channel that others can view and participate in, and so on. For me, I don't think so, because the problem is that the signal-to-noise ratio will almost surely be utter trash.

And I don't debate that there will be some good signal in there, but I think there will be just an overwhelming amount of noise. And as a single person working on my apps, ain't nobody got time for that. I don't have time to be sitting there all day, every day, closing silly issues and so on and so forth. Again, I'm not to imply that all the issues would be silly. Certainly not.

But I think there would be way too much junk and it would take away time that I could otherwise use to make the apps better.

Mike Schaefer writes, this question has been bugging me for a while, and with the rewrite of Overcast, I've started to think about it again. Some podcasts, 20,000 Hertz comes to mind, have custom artwork for each episode that Apple Podcasts will display. However, no third-party podcast app seems to show it.

My understanding is that podcasts are simply RSS feeds, so shouldn't all apps be able to show per-episode artwork? Is there a special upload process for Apple Podcasts that allows for the extra artwork, or is it an intentional choice by the app developers who exclude it?

So, you were queried earlier, or I should say, since I'm talking to you, queried earlier today in Slack, and you ignored it, which is fine. But then as we were recording, I got a notification from my beloved app, Due, D-U-E, and it reads... Episode 549, Colin.

John wants to see a picture of Marco's decontented for supply chain compared to the G4 Ubiquiti G5 camera to see if it being outside has ruined it. Quote, Marco's kink is to put things that aren't weatherproof outside. That was set about a year ago now. I am not asking you to go outside and take a picture of your G5 if it's even still there, but I'm also not asking not asking you to do that.
