@nathan Have you seen any negative consequences of sending the &_from= search param along with your enclosure urls?

@nathan Have you seen any negative consequences of sending the &_from= search param along with your enclosure urls? I know there was at least one hosting company that I can't remember which would return 403's if anything other than their strictly defined set of search params were present in the enclosure url. For some reason I'm thinking it's Podbean, but I can't remember.

@nathan Actually, maybe that was the feed urls that were being restricted so hard and not the enclosures now that I think more about it.

@js: have you seen anything like that?

@dave @nathan the livewire feed validator has a workaround that prevents tacking on a cachebusting query param only for podbean

but always worth retesting this, as things change over time, also the validator works with feed urls, not enclosures
