Great work, thank you! It's so far the only extension catching all feeds on sites I used it on. Also, the icon highlight if there're feeds available is saving time! Starred on GitHub

Worthless. The first time I used it on 'Podcast - The Fifth Column Podcast - https://www.thefifthcolumnpodcast.com/podcast' I got the rude, insulting message, "You 404'd boi." Looks like the dev "404'd boi"… I have no problem getting the feed with a bash script I wrote that uses the excellent 'Podnews - https://podnews.net/search?q='. I also wrote a one-line bookmarklet that opens the selected podcast name in Podnews: javascript:url="https://podnews.net/search?q="+window.getSelection()+"&provider=blended";window.open(url, '_blank'); No need for a buggy extension.
