What was it I saw recently... There was a FOSS podcast player that is completely open and available, but it was demonized because you could (optionally) add the apples/itunes feed. Like reading an RSS feed from apple made it not "FOSS"
That's where I eyeroll hard. Ffs, having the option to use something proprietary does not closed source make. It was one part of one area of the app, that was like, a dropdown selection.
