Open source, lots of features, self hosted sync. If you’re happy in the apple ecosystem its probably not for you, their system works well. But if you aren’t knee deep in apple already or just want complete control of your data its pretty dope.
Do you have to download them manually, or is at simple as giving it a link? Audiobookshelf has podcasts but I have to figure out how to manually download and organize them.
@AntennaPod@fosstodon.org has everything you might need, is open source and is on Fedi at that!

edit: just now trying the app. Really awesome, better than the thing I’m currently using. Thanks for the suggestion!

Most, if not all podcasts are just an rss feed to a url. The application consumes that xml and delivers it to you as icons for you to listen to.

This is like 5x better than google podcasts. Goddamn. It actually works in maps, isnt glitching, and i like the UI more. Awesome.
