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 use Gonic, does exactly what I need. It’s in a docker container and hasn’t let me down in over a year.

To listen to Podcasts from it I use play:Sub on iOS

There seems to be a lot of fun checking out Podcast apps, but I couldn’t find a lot of these on iOS App Store sigh

I don't understand the point of self hosting for podcasts. The whole point of podcasts is being able to stream or download them directly from the source.

Until someone makes a self-hosted podcast caching server that can strip the embedded ads using AI, I'll have no idea why people do it.

Podcast Addict.

My only gripe is that it only works on mobile, so I can't have all my settings shared with my laptop. Otherwise, it's nearly flawless and the premium is cheap as hell.
