Social Link block missing popular podcast services

[iandunn]

What problem does this address?

These services aren't supported by the Social Link block:

• Stitcher
• Pocket Casts
• Apple Podcasts
• Google Podcasts

What is your proposed solution?

Add them, similar to the existing services.

If official SVG icons are hard to find, the w.org/news mockup has copies.

A very hearty plus one for this! I was really really really surprised the first time I realized Apple Podcasts wasn't listed. I'd add a few more to the list for consideration:

• PlayerFM
• Overcast
• Pandora
• Castro
• TuneIn

Yea I think this is fine. :)

I've been looking at adding some of this, and did some due-diligence as the first step, and came up with some info on the services suggested above:

• Stitcher - Discontinued
• Pocket Casts - ✓
• Apple Podcasts - ✓
• Google Podcasts - ✓
• PlayerFM - Seems to be just an app, and not a service
• Overcast - Seems to be just an app, and not a service
• Pandora - ✓
• Castro - Seems to be just an app, and not a service
• TuneIn - ✓

@richtabor I'm working on a PR for this. Would one PR for 5 of these would be okay, or should I do one at a time?

One is fine.

TuneIn

Is this popular? The others obviously are, but I'm not sure about this one.

One is fine.

Thanks! I'll work on this.

TuneIn

It's quite popular, and has 75m active monthly users. They have podcasts, audiobooks, radio channels, sports broadcasting, and more.

Note that this functionality was added in plugin form via 10up/simple-podcasting#241 as part of our Simple Podcasting 1.6.0 release on 31 AUG 2023.

Fyi; Google Podcasts has stopped. See https://support.google.com/youtubemusic/answer/14151168
