Today, @james' @Podnews revealed that @AntennaPod the amazing open-source podcast player, just added transcript support! 🎉
"Version 3.5 of podcast app AntennaPod now displays Podcasting 2.0 transcripts, joining Pocket Casts and Apple Podcasts."
This is a game-changer for accessibility, SEO, discoverability, and the ability to quickly search within an episode.
Huge shout-out to the AntennaPod team, especially Tony Tam, for developing this awesome transcript feature! 🙌

Transcripts in podcasts aren’t just about ease of use; they represent the potential of open, collaborative initiatives like Podcasting 2.0 (thank you @adam and @dave!) to uplift an entire industry. 🌍
It’s been an incredible journey—from the early Podcasting 2.0 dreamers, through dedicated developers who believe in decentralization, to now seeing Apple adopt this specification in Apple Podcasts!

Thank you all, we truly appreciate the work and vision you bring to the table!
Cheers to this amazing ride, and here's to more progress ahead.
