Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Provided the open source nature of the app, it seems off to use chromecast as the apps casting feature.
I would like to request FCast be considered for this purpose on ABS. See screenshot below for its use in grayjay app on android
https://fcast.org/
https://github.com/futo-org/fcast

Why would this be helpful?

implementing another FOSS solution would make more sense and enable those using OSes like graphene OS to cast without google.
