What is new in Podcast Export 0.1.0

First release of Podcast Export, a free, open-source menu bar app that exports your Apple Podcasts shows as OPML, and your listening history.

**Early release:** the reader was checked against Apple Podcasts' real database layout from the command line tool and a sandboxed test build, but the signed app hasn't been tried with Full Disk Access turned on yet. If anything's off, please open an issue.

- **Save your subscriptions as OPML,** the file Overcast, Pocket Casts, Castro, AntennaPod and most other podcast apps import. Apple Podcasts on the Mac can't make one.
- **Export your listening history** to a folder you choose: a note for each show with every episode you've played and how far you got, an overview of every show with how much you've listened, and `Listening History.csv`. JSON too, if you want it.
- **Only what's new on each run,** and plays stay in the export even after Apple Podcasts forgets them, like when you unfollow a show.
- **Never overwrites your edits,** and never touches files that were already in the folder.
- **Private feeds stay private:** a feed address that looks like it holds a personal key goes in the OPML file and nowhere else.
- **Automatic export,** off until you turn it on.
- **Obsidian-friendly:** front matter, tags and links between notes, or standard Markdown links.
