Official Overcast Reddit
Frankly, I’m taking a risk, and am considering it an experiment. I know almost nothing about Reddit, but I want to learn.
I want Overcast to have an official presence here, where I can just tell you what I’m working on, what I’m considering, which bugs I’m trying to tackle, and how things work behind the scenes.
And you can tell me how you use Overcast, what’s working for you, what’s not, and what you’d like to see.
I can’t respond to most posts, and depending on volume, I might not always even be able to read them all.
The early posts and replies are encouraging. I hope this works out.
After the Overcast rewrite, just over a year ago, I got scared reading—on Mastodon, Twitter, and the unofficial Reddit—of all the problems people were having. It seemed to work fine for the majority, but it was hard to know in advance whether I would be affected, so I didn’t want to go through that one-way door. With many bugs now squashed, I finally updated last month and it’s been working well for me. There are some minor issues, like not being able to reorder pinned podcasts, but overall it seems to be reliable and at least as fast as before. I still think this app has the best audio engine.
