Hey all,
I’ve spent the majority of the last year hammering away at Pinepods. It’s a Rust based podcast management system that manages podcasts with multi-user support and relies on a central database with clients to connect to it. It’s complete with a browser based client and your podcasts and settings follow you from device to device due to everything being stored on the server. AntennaPod is great and all but sometimes I want to listen to podcasts from my laptop. Here’s a great solution to that problem. There’s also a client edition that you can download and install.
Search both The Podcast Index or Itunes to browse through shows and episodes, Import or export opmls of your podcasts, utilize the standard of podcasting 2.0. It’s all fully dockerized and you can have an instance of your own up and running in 5 mins!
If you’re on the fence you can try it out without installing the server too! Check the website for more info!
There’s a lot more to come down the pipeline as well, such as a lightweight client to stream episodes to and alternative database support. Now is the perfect time to check it out and enjoy continued feature updates! Feel free to open issues or PRs if you experience any problems. Or drop a line on the discord. I’m happy to help!

Looks and sounds very promising! I’ve been looking for a self-hosted podcast server that I can use to sync podcasts and progress between multiple devices. Nextcloud Gpodder sync is already great, but there does not seem to be any iOS app that supports it. So I’m really looking forward to seeing more of your project!
The web version already works great. So that would work of course on an ios device. Otherwise, keep an eye out as an ios client proper is in the works. It uses tauri for building the clients and tauri has a release coming to add support for ios and Android apps.
