Note that Googlebot very much fails to pay attention to cacheing signals for #RSS files, and Google-Podcast* pays no attention at all to any of these signals. Please fix.
I am hoping to shame Google / Apple / Amazon / Spotify / PodBean into reducing the 99%+ waste from their sloppy behaviour... Eg #LOCO2024
*Why is Google-Podcast still polling my #RSS feed AT ALL, let alone ~140 times per day on a feed that hasn't changed since August?

Sometimes compute needs to be quick and can't be shifted to "cleaner" locations because of the hardware required (e.g. GPUs), data-locality, or governance factors.
#microservice architectures could allow you to adapt the *quality* of an application, by turning various value added features off when they are drawing on dirty energy, and back on when they are clean.

Next Tuesday I'm delivering a lightning talk at the 1st International Workshop on Low Carbon Computing (#LOCO2024), "Running a DIY assessment against the Web Sustainability Guidelines". It's a 5-minute talk about the process I went through doing the @manyfold WSG self-assessment (https://manyfold.app/news/2024/07/12/wsg-assessment.html) back in July.
Online attendance is free (I'm presenting remotely too), so why not pop by? https://www.sicsa.ac.uk/loco/loco2024/
