Any plans for future maintenance?
Hello,
I was wondering if you were open to transfer the maintenance of Shellcaster to other people. The repo could be turned into an organizational repo (e.g. github.com/shellcaster/shellcaster or something similar) to make this easier.
I understand that sometimes it's not possible to continue working on open-source projects indefinitely (and I'm very grateful for the wonderful work you've done!), but I think other people would be able to help the project and merge the open pull requests, fix bugs, etc.
If anyone's interested in continuing it, they're free to fork the repo and work from there...
I did exactly what @jeff-hughes proposed, still many things to iron and not backward compatible, but you can try it repo.
@jeff-hughes For sure, but this will create fragmentation. There are already a few forks that did different things, but the work is a bit scattered.
It might also create confusion if someone wants to try Shellcaster after reading an article like this one for example (this is how I discovered Shellcaster actually 😄)
Update: I tried @gilcu3's fork (hullcaster), but it didn't click for me. I decided to go in another direction and made my own fork: link

Just for curiosity, could you mention what failed exactly? I would appreciate an issue in this case :)

I think it's mostly a question of habit and relearning how to use something. I was already used to a workflow with Shellcaster. I tried your version and saw that the panels were different. I couldn't find how to add feeds or download specific episodes. Also I wasn't able to set the background transparent.
