Possible Solution

To address the feature request to upload AntennaPod APK to the GitHub release page, you can follow these steps:

Integrate with the GitHub Releases API to create a new release and upload the APK file.
Use an existing CI/CD service like GitHub Actions, Travis CI, or CircleCI to automate the release process.
Write a script that is triggered on a new tag or release branch that builds the APK, creates a release on GitHub, and uploads the APK as an asset to the release.

Here is a sample GitHub Actions workflow to automate the process:

name: Release

on:
  push:
    tags:
      - 'v*'

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Check out code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Set up JDK
        uses: actions/setup-java@v2
        with:
          java-version: '11'

      - name: Build APK
        run: ./gradlew assembleRelease

      - name: Upload APK to GitHub Release
        id: upload-release-asset
        uses: actions/upload-release-asset@v1
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        with:
          upload_url: ${{ github.event.release.upload_url }}
          asset_path: ./app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk
          asset_name: AntennaPod-v${{ github.ref }}.apk
          asset_content_type: application/vnd.android.package-archive

Ensure that the GITHUB_TOKEN secret is set in your repository settings.
Replace ./gradlew assembleRelease with the actual command to build the APK for AntennaPod.
Replace ./app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk with the actual path to the generated APK file.

This workflow will automatically build the APK and upload it to the GitHub release page whenever a new tag is pushed that matches the pattern 'v*'.
