I wanted a podcast player that looks great and could be used in my region, with Fedora. So I found Musicpod as flatpack and downloaded it. But when I open it, and want to add podcast it says “It looks like your computer isn’t connected to the internet” so I can’t search. My internet is connected, I use other apps, without problem. Its on Fedora 40, with VPN on. Anything I have to change,or do you recognize this issue?

    Download Flatseal and make sure the app has the permission to access the network

      I’ll add that VPNs are sometimes wonky with certain services. If Networking is enabled, try a different endpoint or try with the VPN off.
