I've been warming up to switching to GrapheneOS for months. Last month I bought a Pixel 8 (which is the buggiest effing phone I've ever owned, good job Google). I've just been waiting to have the bandwidth.

But with Google sunsetting Google Podcasts, I've decided to make time next week. Podcasts are a MAJOR part of my daily functioning.

Since a lot of people have recommended antennapod: does anyone of you also have that weird problem where podcasts randomly skip backwards from anywhere as little as five seconds to a minute during normal playback?

Yes! I thought it was just me. Any idea how to resolve?

Set playback speed to max. The podcast will now have less time to skip until it is over. taps head

I have Podcast Addict, I think its free but I paid a few dollars because of the great selection of settings and options I never knew I needed.

(For example I have it configured so that after 5pm the Sleeptimer automatically makes the podcast fade down and pausing after 10' of listening, unless I move/shake the phone during the fade down-part, then it extends for another 10'. Perfect for using it in public transport or in bed and dozing off.)

If you self host nextcloud, another option is to put the rss feeds for your favorite podcasts into the news app. I listen to all of my podcasts through that.

However... I'd totally be interested in a better self hosted podcast app that allows me to see a record of everything I've listened to, while also allowing me to download the episodes to my phone, lol. That's the only reason I'm stuck on the news app still.

Maybe the gpoddersync-nextcloud app is more your thing? You can use that with all podcastapps that support gpodder sync. Works with Antennapod on Android and Kasts on KDE/Kubuntu.
