Yes

What was the Problem?

I was using the app for podcasts but I came across with a problem which is not being able to remove a podcast even though I have permissions as user.
I contacted via discord but the only thing they could have told me it was that I have to do it via web.
I consider this a pretty basic feature which leaves defenseless the app users to manage their library.
It is also weird that you can remove the episodes one by one until you're left with the cover and then you can do nothing for cleaning your library.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

Go to a podcast library.
Add an empty podcast.
Try to remove it.
You can't becaude there is not any menu that allows such a thing, despite of having permissions.

What was Expected?

Having a 3 dot menu to fully remove the podcast.
