Takes ages to add a podcast or podcast episode on Castopod

mm, for me , everything is instantaneous. Are you able to reproduce this on the demo Cloudron ? Where is it egg-timing or failing?

When you want to create a new podcast, or add a new episode, you populate the fields and when all is ready, hit enter. That is when the delay begins. I will try it on the demo later if I have a chance.
by the way, castopod video clips need .srt files. Do we have a self-hosted speech transcription offering on Cloudron? Meta's ASR (automatic speech recognition) seems to be well regarded. i was going to make an app request but it is too messy:

How big are your audio files? I only tested with some 3 demo audio files which around 10MB each.

15MB
I am going to reinstall it. I noticed something during first setup that wasn't right. Will let you know. -
I tried setting up Castopod on the Cloudron demo. The setup went ok. (Thanks for such a fast demo server!)
After logging in as admin and creating a manager account, the magic link was sent by email ok but then I ran into similar problems to those I encountered on my own instance:
I tried having the link resent and it won't accept the password. I also tried logging out altogether and that didn't work.
If somebody would like to destroy the castopod demo instance and retry, that is fine. I didn't get as far as trying to upload a podcast there.

@LoudLemur I could reproduce it now. It seems there is a bug in Castopod that if you try to login with the invitation link when already logged in as another user, it shows that exception.
Instead:
- I opened in anonymous tab and requested an invite link
- Pasted invite link from email into anonymous tab
- Am able to set password and login

That link doesn't work for me.

Thanks for that.
I unfortunately can't follow your method.
I installed castopod, logged in as admin and created an additional castopod account with manager rights. I then logged out as admin, so there should be nobody in castopod at all. I found the email with the magic link and tried opening that in a private window. It asked me to create a password, and then:This happens whether I follow the link using an incognito window, ordinary tab or a different browser running TOR.

I was again able to create a manager account. I think that the problem I had earlier might have been related to the email address format used.
This format is OK on castopod:
myemail@address.comThis format results in the exception:
my+email@address.comI am still finding that the podcast creation takes a long time. I will see if it is due to trying to create the podcast as a manager rather than as a podcaster...
If anybody is using Vaultwarden with Castopod, is Vaultwarden recognizing Castopod pages with login fields? Usually, Vaultwarden/Bitwarden will recognize that the page has saved credentials and notifes that it is has data to paste. This isn't triggering, I find.
