What do you use for listening to podcasts? (feddit.online)

I use Funkwhale for my music collection and had my podcasts in there for a while. However, I ended up not listening to my podcasts very much since they were hidden among my much larger music collection.

So I moved my podcasts feeds to FreshRSS, which I was already using for RSS feeds. I like the simplicity of using something that I already had, but it doesn't have any podcast-specific features like being able to resume where you left off.

Do you have any podcast listening apps that you like?

*edit: I should add that I originally meant "self-hostable applications for storing your podcast subscriptions," but these phone app recommendations are great to have, too. I might just ditch the server-side of this entirely and just use a separate app on my devices for listening. It would be nice if I only had to subscribe in one place and be able to pick up where I left off across multiple devices, though.

I duct taped together some API calls and a config file to get some smart playlist features. I find it very helpful for the slow pace I listen to some podcasts. I have it set up to put daily and weekly episodes first and then serials. Super niche , but it's just how I like to listen to my podcasts. https://github.com/TunaLobster/PyAutoABSPlaylist

This looks cool! I was yearning for a similar feature just a few days ago. Thanks for sharing.

Let me know if you hit issues. It was a very thrown together thing that is very lacking in customization without hacking python logic together.

I primarily use antennapod but tried abs out of curiousity. How did you get around the queue issue? I found it to be a dealbreaker

Thanks! Haven't heard of Audiobookshelf before, and that's the kind of thing I was looking for.

Also really love that app and they use it to automatically archive podcasts in a darker container.
