This is extremely unimportant so don't consider it as a real feature request, just a tiny potential improvement. The feed URLs contain an entire UUID which seems excessive. Just a 5 character ASCII string gives around 34 billion unique URLs, and looks much prettier.

Difference:
https://paperpod.fm/api/feeds/a7eaa0a8-0513-11ec-9a03-0242ac130003 (random UUID generated by me)

vs:

Very good point! I'll research how this could be implemented in the context of the existing code.

Might be able to use this.
I.e. provide shortenend user uuids as part of the feed URL and then translate
then back in the RSS route
