Update home.js

Limit podcast episode titles to one line. A small change alongside patch-4 (which I'm not clever enough to know how to combine in the web version of Github).

What do you mean limit to one line? does it cut off the message? Do you have a picture which illustrates it?

[jamescridland]

Here's what it can look like if you have overly long podcast episode titles.

This patch adds an overflow-ellipsis and limits episode titles (only) to one line-height. It has no effect on the message below.

It is assumed that podcasters will have episode titles that can be told apart from the first 30-40 characters; it would be very poor practice were they not to in any case (for typical podcast apps only show 30-40 characters).

That is an improvement! Is there a way to see the entire title? perhaps by hovering over it? Curious how you would implement that? Would a click to expand be better?

[jamescridland]

You can relatively simply add a 'hover' action, but that doesn't work on mobile. It's also not very accessible.

This title has been set by the podcaster that is reading these boosts; and the first 30-40 characters should be enough to make the episode clear. If you'd be able to clarify the usecase for seeing the full episode title, I'd be grateful.

[valcanobacon]

I guess as long as you can identify which episode it is that should be enough. It does seem unlikely that 30-40 characters would not be enough to identify the podcast. I suppose someone might want to read the title. What is the canonical mobile alternative to tooltips on hover?
