Selfhosted rss w/ push? (lemmy.world)

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.

Why do you need to self-host a dedicated server? Just put AntennaPod on your phone.

Lol no seriously, what's your goal here? Self-hosting a server seems entirely unnecessary.

If you want to host an RSS server, FreshRSS is easy to set up if you know how to do Docker stuff. Then, you could connect it to a podcast app on your phone. But all that seems very complicated when you could just install AntennaPod (which is open source), subscribe to a podcast's official RSS feed, and turn on notifications for that podcast. Adding an RSS server between your listening device and the original RSS server is unnecessary IMO, unless you have a use case that I'm not understanding.

Here is a use case: multiple device sync. With a server client infrastructure, read status are synced to the server, so if I change device, I can pick it up where I left off. Same thing as using a cloud service, but self hosted.

Antennapod does offer that by hooking into the gpodder.net API.ive had varying success with gpodder.net but hosting that yourself (I host it as an app on my Nextcloud) is a breeze

I am really happy with miniflux. It supports mobile and has good keyboard navigation support on Desktop. It's also runs really smooth on my rather low powered homeserver (rpi 2b).

For push notifications you can use a simple script with ntfy. For example miniflux-ntfy.
