iOS podcasts app "can't connect right now."

As the title says; In the Browse and Search tab I only get this message. Plus a "Retry" button that I pressed a thousand times with no effect.

All other network connections on the device work so far.

I already tried these:

Restarted the device several times.

Removed / reinstalled the Podcasts app 3 times.

Apple ID sign out / sign in (this solved another problem concerning Keychain syncing)

I know what's next, but I'm not really in the mood to reset and reinstall the device completely just because of this...

iPhone SE, iOS 11

Problem solved after lengthy email complaints. I'm HK Store user, hopefully other HK and Swiss users would also see their app working fine.
