Subscribe to an RSS feed

Other users on your pod can't see podcasts you import using RSS. They need to subscribe to the feed themselves.

You can use Funkwhale as a {term}podcatcher to listen to your favorite podcasts. Funkwhale can read {abbr}RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds to import podcasts. To add an RSS feed to Funkwhale:
