Feature description

Problem you may be having, or feature you want:

As the title really - I would find this setting much more useful if it didn't show empty shows above shows with episodes to listen to, regardless of if they have a more recent publication date.

Hi and thank you for writing this issue!

It looks like you did not follow our issue template. In case you accidentally deleted the template, you can find the version for bug reports here and the version for feature requests here. Please copy the matching template and then edit your post to follow the template. Please also make sure to use the search function to look for open and closed issues about the same topic.

In order to properly deal with the issue, we need the information requested in the template. Please note that dealing with duplicate issues and asking users to follow the issue template takes away a lot of time from the developers. That time can then not be spent to actually implement features.

Sorry, I do not really understand your request. Shows can not have a publication date, only episodes. Please describe your request in a bit more detail. What are empty shows? A podcast without any episode?

When writing a feature request, always keep in mind that it usually takes 3+ hours to develop even the simplest features. Making your request easy to understand and pleasant to read increases the chance that someone spends a lot of their free time to implement it.

Yes I see that my description is not clear.

By empty, I mean podcasts that have no unplayed episodes. If all of the episodes of a podcast have been listened to, it would be lower than a podcast that has 1 or more episodes, even if its most recent published episode is newer.

Newest episode date - 1 or more unplayed To Oldest episode date - 1 or more unplayed Then Newest episode date - 0 unplayed To Oldest episode date - 0 unplayed
