With Google podcast dying I’m looking for a replacement.

I’d like to unchain myself from the corpos if I can too. So I’m not interested in another pod catcher that’ll just try to monetize me.

Are there are self hosted rss readers with push? That seems like a great solution for pods and just about anything else I might want to keep up with.

    I tried a few.

    Podhoarder is nice but more geared toward hoarding and a bit complex for listening.

    Podfetch is nice and currently maintained but has some issues with proxy auth. It might cut the cheese for you I think. It has a weird naming scheme on disk tough.

    AudioBookReader is amazing and still currently under very active development. With its mobile app is perfect for my use case. Podcast support is just fine for me.

    PodGrabber seems abandoned since 2022, but I didn’t try it.
