<![CDATA[Open Source Podcasting app]]>I'm on a quest to find the best podcasting client that is open-source, available in docker image so that it can be listed here in the wishlist.

I think Winds seems to be the best candidate if cloudron had 1 podcasting app !

Client :

Full set :

Dir2Cast : https://github.com/ben-xo/dir2cast
Podcats : https://github.com/jakubroztocil/podcats

it's probably going to be an interesting talk because we all have different needs, some might want a full system to produce and publish podcasts, others just want to have a simple self hosted client to subscribe and listen on the go, curious to know what is the community experience with podcasting, selfhosting and simply from a listener perspective, how do you handle your podcasts usage in the context of self-hosting and data ownership ?

For myself, I don't want to have a device bloated with audio and manage it all from my smartphone, I listen to podcasts while working or at home, so I would rather have a self hosted client to grab new podcasts episodes from subscriptions as they arrive and then listen them directly on the browser or via streaming on any device.

What's your approach ?

what podcast plugin do you use ?

Currently using Wordpress for that purpose, which works fine, but Iā€™m always on the lookout for alternatives. Especially ways of getting better statistics.
